What cosmos do we live in?

For Martin Waldseemüller (ca. 1472 - 1520), who was born in Wolfenweiler near Freiburg, this question became the guiding question of his life 500 years ago. He studied mathematics and geography in Freiburg and published a map of the world in 1507, which included parts of a new continent for the first time. Waldseemüller named it "America" after its discoverer Amerigo Vespucci.
Since then, our insatiable curiosity has led us humans to explore ever new horizons. We explore the earth, our solar system, the Milky Way - and finally the universe at large, to get a picture of the cosmos like Waldseemüller.
