Uncovering the Mystery of The Great Attractor

Since the 1970s, we’ve known something is wrong. Something is lurking, hidden behind the dust and gas of our galaxy so completely that our best telescopic eyes cannot find it—but it’s there. And while Edwin Hubble told us the universe is flying apart in all directions, there’s more to the story than the spreading of galaxies spawned by the Big Bang.

A lot more.

While apocalyptic scenarios are a dime a dozen these days, this one beckons from across the universe like a great cosmic monster that is slowly gobbling up all that enters its domain. An intergalactic Venus flytrap snaring its prey before it can escape.

It’s the Great Attractor, named by astronomer Alan Dressler, and like it or not, our galaxy and every other galaxy in our subdivision of the universe is racing towards it right now.

We dive into this fascinating and perhaps deadly corner of space that has us in its intractable grasp, and something even larger that is grasping at that very thing itself. Is it our ultimate doom?
