2. a highly detailed, extremely photorealistic image: A scene of a modern astronomer observing a distant galaxy through a space telescope. The astronomer is wearing a white lab coat and is checking data on a laptop computer while looking through the telescope. In the background, the vastness of space is depicted, visually representing the expansion of the universe caused by the Big Bang. Galaxies spread out in spirals and stars shine clearly. The observation room is futuristic in design, with a monitor showing a simulation of the universe. The viewer's perspective is over the shoulder of the astronomer, capturing the expanding universe through the space telescope through which he peers.
