In this visualization, you can navigate through all BGP adjacencies as observed from NTT Communications' network. Each star in this galaxy represents an Autonomous System, the edges between stars are derived from all AS_PATHs in the Default-free zone as seen from AS2914.

I wondered why this visualisation was so jumpy and unstable on my iPhone, until I sat up and moved the phone. Only example of a website I've seen which uses accelerometers and gyroscopes to navigate!

This cluster on the left are all of the DoD ASNs http://as2914.net/#/galaxy/ipv4?cx=4134&cy=5005&cz=-884&lx=-... they really stand out as their a group on their own.

Thanks job - I was just going to point this out. Did you notice the connection to AS62010, 3DATA LLC, Moscow, Russia? Whose only other link is to AS29226, CJSC Mastertel, Moscow?

I didnt see that. Who knows why they are connected! Maybe for the Moscow–Washington VOIP hotline ;)

How is the length of path defined? [IE - Why are the DoD so far out?]

Why is this?

Amazing.

And try it from your phone/tablet, it's even more immersive!

I'm literally flying through the internet. This is way too cool.

Arrow keys and WASD move you around.
