The Cosmic Web is the largest known structure in the universe - a colossal network of filaments and voids spanning the cosmos. From tiny quantum fluctuations emerged the grand framework that shaped every galaxy we see today. A true masterpiece of gravity, time and cosmic evolution.

A stunning glimpse into the Vela constellation!

These glowing filaments are the remains of a stellar explosion that occurred around 11,000 years ago.

Aaaaand he's done ^_^

Now to see if we can get some filaments that are suitable!

Attempt number seven at uploading this video of intermediate filaments in an enormous COS7 cell. I have a feeling the BlueSky compression will not do it any favors.

As I have been working with mammals a lot lately, I have had a lot of thoughts about how fur, feathers, or any other filaments affect the silhouette.

Getting tiny steel filaments lodged in your esophagus builds character.

A juvenile pipefish. I believe the long filaments probably mimic siphonophores, but I'm no expert on this stuff. Pic from Balayan Bay, Anilao

This is an airyscan confocal movie of mitochondria (white) moving around in a mouse astrocyte. Actin filaments are in orange and microtubules are in blue.

I was a vampire squid for Halloween! Filaments and their spikey suckers included, just missing making the arm tips glow ✨

So put it all together and you have terraces. At first it's just a shallow pool, eventually where the water cascades away from the pool filaments of bacteria form. Those filaments form a basis for precipitates and walls around the pools begin to form.
Eventually they look like solidified string.

This infrared view of the Pleiades (M45), captured by WISE spacecraft. Light & winds from the cluster’s stars shape the dust into filaments. Located 450 light-years away in Taurus, the image spans about 20 light-years.

I have suffered the atrocity of sunsets.
Scorched to the root
My red filaments burn and stand, a hand of wires.
Now I break up in pieces that fly about like clubs.”

This is what stars being born in a neighbouring galaxy look like.
