A collection of galactic groups form a cluster of galaxies. A supercluster is the largest known structure.
Galaxies can exist outside of a group or cluster, but the estimated amount is only about 5%. However, there is a possibility that these galaxies may have interacted or merged with other galaxies in the past,
Hundreds, if not thousands.
See related link for a list of known clusters.
A Galaxy Cluster can contain between 50 and a 1,000 galaxies.
As long as galaxies form together to make a cluster and clusters form together to make a super cluster it's called a super cluster.
Yes.
There are over 15 trillion globular clusters (150 per galaxy) in the universe.
The visible universe. I'm a bit of a space buff and to my knowledge there aren't any celestial structures that are larger than a galaxy cluster. The only one I've come upon is the visible universe itself. I could be wrong about that but then again, I could be right. That tends to be how celestial questions like that one go. Hope this helps. Answer 2: Galaxy clusters are clusters of galaxies and therefore larger than individual galaxies. Superclusters are clusters of galaxy clusters and so are larger then galaxy clusters. Filaments are collections of superclusters and are the largest known structures in the universe.
Actually a galaxy is in a universe
A galaxy typically has several star clusters.
The galaxy clusters are the solar systems orbiting the galaxies.
A large cluster of many galaxy clusters
The Universe Is the whole, where all the galaxies are, and galaxies are just big clusters of starts, planets and different types of debris.
global clusters, open clusters and star clusters. (:
Yes. Galaxy clusters are clusters of galaxies and therefore larger than individual galaxies. Superclusters are clusters of galaxy clusters and so are larger then galaxy clusters. Filaments are collections of superclusters and are the largest known structures in the universe.
Personally, I am a human on earth, which revolves around the sun, which is one star out of billions in our galaxy, which is part of a galaxy cluster, which is one of billions of galaxy clusters in the universe. For all we know, there could be multiple universes within the giant vacuum of space. So I am an extremely minute spec on the landscape of the universe.
Yes. There are countless globular clusters in the universe.
Galaxies form groups called galaxy clusters, so they would orbit the center of mass of the galaxy clusters, just as our Solar System orbits the center of mass of our galaxy.Galaxies form groups called galaxy clusters, so they would orbit the center of mass of the galaxy clusters, just as our Solar System orbits the center of mass of our galaxy.Galaxies form groups called galaxy clusters, so they would orbit the center of mass of the galaxy clusters, just as our Solar System orbits the center of mass of our galaxy.Galaxies form groups called galaxy clusters, so they would orbit the center of mass of the galaxy clusters, just as our Solar System orbits the center of mass of our galaxy.
