What is the largest sturctual unit of the universe?
The largest structures are superclusters. Superclusters are made of clusters of galaxies. Larger or not, the Brick Wall (whatever it's called) also is large. As of January 2013, the Huge Large Quasar Group is the largest known structure in the universe. The Huge-LQG was discovered in January 2013.
Is a galaxy a large group of stars?
Yes. The smallest galaxies may contain just a few million stars. Large galaxies like our own, the Milky Way, contain between 200 and 400 billion stars. The largest galaxies are Ellipticals, and may contain as many as 50 trillion stars.
What are galaxies that travel together through space called?
Clusters
What are groups of solar systems called?
The Solar System is the name of our particular planetary system around our star; Sol. Many stars have been observed to have similar planetary systems and it can be assumed this is a common event in the Universe. Often neighbouring stars will form small groups called clusters, but the Universe is populated by huge groups of stars called galaxies which contain anything from a few million to trillions of stars.
What is a group of stars that may contain hundreds of thousands of stars?
Globular clusters and very small galaxies.
What are three structures in the universe to which earth belongs?
clusters of galaxies, galaxies, planetary systems, solar systems
Which of these objects has the largest size A globular clusters B galaxies C stars D nebula?
Superclusters.
What are billions of stars held together by gravitational attraction?
They form galaxies, galactic clusters, and galactic superclusters.
What are superclusters?
Superclusters are very large groupings of smaller galactic clusters. Superclusters are the largest known structures in the Universe, and since they are not gravitationally bound, they partake in the Hubble expansion. The Milky Way Galaxy is located in the Local Group, which in turn is located in the Virgo Supercluster.
What is the name for a large group of stars gas and dust held together by gravity?
Such groups exist at different levels:* Star clusters * Galaxies * Galaxy clusters * Superclusters
What do we call objects that emit light in space?
Stars, quasars, clusters, nebulae, galaxies, superclusters, the CMBR (Cosmic Microwave Background Radiation).

What do you call large scale groups of star held together by gravitational attraction?
Groups at different scales (from smaller to larger) are called:* Multiple stars (two or more stars that are gravitationally bound) * Star clusters * Galaxies * Galaxy clusters * Superclusters
What is the estimated number of superclusters since there are 100 billion galaxies in the universe?
Ten superclusters.
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 there something bigger than a galaxy?
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.
What is composed of galaxies and clusters of galaxies?
A supercluster.
