A redshift survey of galaxies will enable astronomers to infer                  the physical structure of our Universe out to large distances.                  The redshift of the light from galaxies depends on the distance                 to the galaxy.  A new galaxy redshift survey of unprecedented                   size will be carried out.  The galaxy sample will be selected                   photo-electrically using the scanning Charge-Coupled Device (CCD)               camera at the Las Campanas 1-meter telescope in Chile.  Redshifts               for 20,000 galaxies will be obtained using multiple-object                      spectroscopy at the wide-field Cassegrain focus of the Las                      Campanas 2.5-meter telescope.  The median galaxy redshift will be               18,000 kilometers per seconds.  The survey will sample 800 square               degrees distributed over an area of one steradian of the sky.                   The large volume of the survey will reveal features in the galaxy               distribution at the largest practicable scales.  The high                       sampling density of the survey will reveal in detail the nature                 of clusters and voids in the galaxy distribution within our                     Universe.
