It's Stephen Hawking's birthday. The occasion to share this fantastic video he produced as part of his Genius documentatry series. Hawking elaborates on our place in the Universe, including our membership to the Laniakea supercluster of galaxies that we discovered back in 2014.
The complete documentary: https://www.pbslearningmedia.org/resource/hawking_genius_ep06_full/where-are-we-full-episode-genius-by-stephen-hawking/

Cosmography Update
A 3D map of basins of attractions in the Local Universe, inferred from Cosmicflows-4 and based on a probabilistic approach, gives new insights on our cosmic whereabouts. We have not reached the "End of Greatness" yet!
