So what is pushing and pulling all of that?

Intuitively, I always imagine things moving from left to right when observed from the outside but this model seems to have been perceived as moving from right to left, which I know is meaningless in an infinite space but it just feels strange.

I think its to do with Galaxy densities mainly.

I think I get that, but my questions what is pushing or pulling that whole region along on the ssumption that the Shapley Attractor and Dipole Repeller system is itself moving in relation to the rest of the universe?

I found the FLOW to be a fascinating observation. Not sure about the
attractor-repeller "dipole" stuff? Implying unknown or new Physics? 
But, one senses there is a great "something" inferred... maybe.

Yep I think thats it.

Intriguing. It almost suggests that its all part of a bound system and alternate ends of one of the same. A cosmic wormhole or blackhole that eats one end passes the other. So that would mean we would go from the prestigious glory of knowing we are children of the stars to knowing we are principally the product of a giant wormholes backside. Oh how the mighty fall.

Thanks for the ref. I understood some of it !! Very interesting. But the video was entirely mumbojumbo and muttered so badly that one couldnt pull out any hooks to go google on !
