The SDSS is the most ambitious astronomical survey ever undertaken. It provides a 3-dimensional map of about a million galaxies and quasars. As the survey progresses, the data are released to the scientific community and the general public in annual increments.    This visualization presents a 3-D view of the largest structures in the universe. It begins with data from the Sloan Sky Survey and zooms out to reveal data from WMAP.
