The Las Campanas Redshift Survey is considered the first attempt to map a large area of the universe out to a redshift of z = 0.2.
It was begun in 1991 using the Las Campanas telescope in Chile to catalog 26418 separate galaxies.
[1] It is considered one of the first surveys to document the so-called "end of greatness" where the Cosmological Principle of isotropy could be seen.
Superclusters[2][3][4][5][6][7] and voids are prominent features in the survey.
