They definitively demonstrated that the local bulk flow is actually dominated by a single massive attractor complex, Shapley and the Great Attractor, and a single previously unidentified equally powerful repeller.

The Dipole Repeller is a staggeringly massive void situated deep in the northern hemisphere at a kinematic distance of approximately 16,000 kilometers per second.

Where does that put it on the map?

Which places it directly diametrically opposite the Shapley Attractor Complex in the sky.

The mathematical mapping demonstrated flawlessly that the bulk flow vector of our local group is closely tightly anti-aligned with the dipole repeller, while the expansion eigenvector is perfectly aligned with the Shapley attractor.
