Even on cursory examination of the larger photo linked, it is pretty undeniable that there is a large scale filamentous like structure to the universe. Bubbles of matter, energy, and time that span nearly incomprehensible scales.

“... it is pretty undeniable that there is a large scale filamentous like structure to the universe.”

You’d think so, but not to a mainstream cosmologist. They deny it on principle:

“In modern physical cosmology, the cosmological principle is an axiom that embodies the working assumption or premise that the distribution of matter in the universe is homogeneous and isotropic when viewed on a large enough scale, since the forces are expected to act uniformly throughout the universe, and should, therefore, produce no observable irregularities in the large scale structuring over the course of evolution of the matter field that was initially laid down by the Big Bang.”

(Note this is an axiom that is assumed to be true without (or regardless of) evidence)
