About this episode
Delve into how gravity shapes not just galaxies but information itself. We explain why density alone misses most of the universe's data, introduce the shear tensor and anisotropic deformation, and reveal how the cosmic web's filaments and walls carry the bulk of information. We'll also look ahead to next-generation surveys like Euclid and the Rubin Observatory that will finally map the universe's true shape and reveal the missing 83% of data.
