  A) You are in the universe about 380,000 years after the Big Bang when the cosmic microwave background radiation was formed.
  B) You are in intergalactic space within a rich cluster of thousands of galaxies.
  C) You are in the center of the Milky Way Galaxy, looking outward into the Local Group.
