What are Large groups of galaxy clusters that appear in sheetlike and threadlike shapes?
Large groups of galaxy clusters that appear in sheetlike and threadlike shapes are called superclusters.
What is a super cluster?
Superclusters are large groupings of smaller galaxy groups and clusters, and are among the largest structures of the cosmos.
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 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 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.
What is the difference between the milky way and globular clusters?
Globular clusters are small groups of stars, while the milky way is a large galaxy containing hundreds of billions of stars, along with some of these clusters.
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 does a galaxy have clusters of?
A galaxy typically has several star clusters.
What are galaxy clusters about?
The galaxy clusters are the solar systems orbiting the galaxies.
What's the difference between a universe and a galaxy?
The Universe Is the whole, where all the galaxies are, and galaxies are just big clusters of starts, planets and different types of debris.
What does a galaxy include?
global clusters, open clusters and star clusters. (:
