Two slices of the Center for Astrophysics (CfA) redshift survey extension are now complete. The survey indicates that galaxies are distributed on the thin surfaces of “bubble-like” structures. The voids in the survey have diameters as large as 5,000 km s−1. These structures challenge theories for the formation of large-scale structure in the universe and suggest new approaches to several problems in the field.
