And he brought him forth abroad, and said, Look now toward heaven, and tell the stars, if thou be able to number them: Genesis 15:5
"Galaxies are gathered together in great chains and walls which curl
around vast regions of empty space known as ‘voids’.
But most cosmologists are still clinging to the hope that the universe is ‘smooth’ on large scales.
As the Professor of Astrophysics at Nottingham University acknowledges, once they accept that the universe is not uniform, ‘We’re lost. … The foundations of the big bang models would crumble away. We’d be left with no explanation for the big bang, or galaxy formation, or the distribution of galaxies in the universe.’" CMI
