6dF Galaxy Survey: Beyond the Crux
The 6dF Galaxy Survey has collected more than 120,000 red shifts over the southern sky over a 5-year period from 2001 to 2005. Its goal is to map our southern view of the local universe and use the peculiar motions of one-tenth of the survey to measure galaxy mass. It covers more than eight times the sky area of the successful 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey. This fulldome movie is a slow flight through the survey data that also maps a library of galaxy images based upon the surveys estimate of the galaxy type.
