In the 1970's, scientists produced a detailed map of the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB), the leftover radiation from the Big Bang. What we observed shocked everyone:
Scientists found that one side of the Milky Way was slightly warmer than the other. This anomaly in an otherwise uniform universe, revealed a temperature difference of less than one one-hundredth of a degree Fahrenheit. This subtle variation indicated that our galaxy was moving at some 600 kilometres per second toward the Centaurus constellation.
Then, in the 1980s, the mystery grew more when we found that only the the Milky Way, but hundreds of other galaxies were also being pulled towards a specific region in space, and it was not towards the constellation of Centaurus, no.
Further discoveries showed that everything within hundreds of millions of light years of us, was getting pulled towards this mysterious giant magnet, which, calculations suggest, to be more than 10 million billion times the mass of our Sun.
We named it the Great Attractor!
