That is really cool, we still have so much more to learn about what is really out there and what is driving all these cosmic forces.

@zleap Thanks for your interest Paul! Yes indeed it's fascinating stuff to study. If you are interested by more posts on results from our cosmicflows research program, you can click on the hashtags #laniakea #dipolerepeller #southpolewall

How do I follow a specific hash tag ? or do I just add to the follow list in my profile.

@zleap @pomarede For me on my mastodon ios app, I can see a follow button when i clicked on a hashtag. Here is a screenshot.

Thanks

@freemo I don't seem to be seeing this, if I click on a hashtag I just see more posts with the tag.

I will keep trying.
