This all mind blowing. Can we make a guess of what the structure of the universe is? Are there illustrations?

Yes, at the largest scales there are large structures composed of galaxies with voids between them. At smaller scales, we can observer large clusters of galaxies.

See, for example, Galactic Filaments [0]

Really cool stuff!
