Yes. In astronomy, the phrase "local cluster" refers to the "local cluster of galaxies that are fairly near us".
Scientists may never know exactly why the big bang and the formation of the universe seems to have been so spotty, but there appear to be random patterns of galaxies, dust clouds and empty space. If the Universe were a piece of cloth, it would be lace.
What else can I help you with?
Is Andromeda galaxy bigger than a galaxy cluster?
A galaxy cluster consists of several galaxy groups, each of which in turn contains several galaxies. So no; a galaxy cluster is MUCH bigger than any individual galaxy.
What major galaxy other than our own is in our galaxy cluster?
Andromeda Galaxy - M31 Our Galaxy cluster is called "The local group".
Is the sloan great wall bigger than a galaxy cluster?
Yes. From Wikipedia: "...as of 2010, is the largest known structure in the Universe. ... The wall measures 1.37 billion light years (1.30×1025 m) in length..." This is much more than a galaxy cluster.
Is Local Group bigger than the Milky Way?
The Milky Way is the galaxy in which our sun is located. The local group of stars is part of the Milky Way and therefore smaller than it is. The local Group of galaxies is a cluster of galaxies and therefore larger than the Milky Way.
Is local group larger than galaxy?
No, a galaxy is larger than a local group. A local group typically contains a small number of galaxies, while a galaxy is a massive collection of stars, gas, dust, and dark matter held together by gravity. Examples of local groups include the Local Group which contains the Milky Way and Andromeda galaxies.
What is bigger than a galaxy?
Our Universe is bigger, than a galaxy.
What is bigger than a galaxy cluster?
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.
Is the Local Super cluster bigger than the local group?
Yes it is. A supercluster has up to 50 galaxies where the local group contains up to 30. The local group cluster is actually located within the Local (or Virgo) supercluster.
Is the Andromeda galaxy a cluster?
No, it is a galaxy. A stellar cluster is an object that is much smaller than a galaxy, and contains a few thousand stars, up to about a million or so. A galaxy cluster, on the other hand, is a group of galaxies, not a single galaxy.
What does the Milky Way move around?
Viewed from the Galactic North Pole, the Milky Way galaxy is moving anticlockwise.
Is a solar system bigger than the universe?
The Solar System is our Sun, the planets, their moons and a whole host of other interstellar stuff. Our Solar System is part of the Milky Way Galaxy, a collection of billions of Stars. Our Milky way is a galaxy part of a collection of many galaxies called the Local Group. Our Local Group is part of the the super cluster called the Virgo Super Cluster which is part of the Universe. So YES.
What is bigger a galaxy or a gaseous nebula?
A Galaxy is far bigger than a nebula.
