AbstractThe 6dF Galaxy Survey (6dFGS) is currently measuring the redshifts of around 170 000 galaxies and the peculiar velocities of a 15 000-member sub-sample. It will be the largest redshift survey of the local universe and more than an order of magnitude larger than any peculiar velocity survey to date. When complete, it will cover essentially the entire southern sky around a mean redshift of z = 0.05. Central to the survey is the Six-Degree Field (6dF) multi-fibre spectrograph, an instrument able to record 150 simultaneous spectra over the 5.7°-field of the
