THE CELESTIAL ZOO is a tour of 210 places of interest in our Universe, describing each landscape with curious facts that are a must-know when planning our first trips through the Cosmos. Featuring the most bizarre galaxies, stars, planets, and other weirdos of all colors and shapes.

The circular view of the observable universe in the middle was assembled by Pablo Carlos Budassi by combining real images and illustrations of astronomical objects, and with data from a Princeton University publication.

Using this image as a map and the accumulated knowledge of 400 years of modern astronomy, we will spend a minute or two at each of these selected destinations, and if we return alive, we will have the most up-to-date knowledge about the celestial wildlife and maybe, in the next trip, we can be the tour guides ourselves.

My favorite space fact; If you took the biggest star in the known universe and replaced our sun with it, the circumference of the star would encompass Jupiter......'s entire orbit.

Thanks for sharing this. I'd seen the middle image of the universe but not with this extra info.

Its what you need if you have a space ship and didnt know were to go. Ask the voice command "find me the closest ring nebula".
