Yes its called the Local Cluster or Local Group, we have many minor Globular or Cluster Galaxies orbiting our own.
The Milky Way Galaxy is the second largest galaxy, after Andromeda, in the Local Group. The Triangulum Galaxy (a.k.a., the Star Wars galaxy) is the third largest. The Local Group contains about 30 galaxies, including dwarf galaxies.
The Coma Cluster is known to contain a mix of elliptical and lenticular (S0) galaxies as its dominant types. These galaxies are characterized by their older stellar populations and lack of much ongoing star formation activity. Spirals and irregular galaxies are also present but in smaller numbers compared to elliptical and lenticular galaxies in the Coma Cluster.
The Milky Way galaxy is part of the Local Group, which is a collection of several galaxies. The Local Group, in turn, is a part of the larger Virgo Supercluster.
a cluster of about 40 galaxies to which the milky way galaxy belongs Five popular Local Group galaxies: 1. Milky Way 2. Andromeda 3. Triangulum 4. Large Magellanic Cloud 5. Small Magellanic Cloud
The galaxy cluster that contains the Milky Way is called the Local Group.

No. It is a single galaxy.
Viewed from the Galactic North Pole, the Milky Way galaxy is moving anticlockwise.
The Milky Way Galaxy and its nearest neighbors are part of a cluster known as the Local Group. This cluster comprises over 50 galaxies, including prominent members like the Andromeda Galaxy and the Triangulum Galaxy. The Local Group spans approximately 10 million light-years and is part of the larger Laniakea Supercluster. It is characterized by a mix of spiral, elliptical, and irregular galaxies.
The Milky Way Galaxy is the second largest galaxy, after Andromeda, in the Local Group. The Triangulum Galaxy (a.k.a., the Star Wars galaxy) is the third largest. The Local Group contains about 30 galaxies, including dwarf galaxies.
The cluster, which contains the Milky way and more than 50 other galaxies, is called the Local Cluster. The cluster has a diameter of 3.1 million parsecs (10 million light years). The Local Group is part of the much larger Virgo Supercluster.
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.
No, because our solar system is in the Milky Way GALAXY
the Virgo cluster of galaxies is about 60 million light years away from the Sun.
The Milky Way Galaxy is a spiral galaxy and open clusters are only found in spiral or irregular galaxies.
Ah, the Milky Way is not actually located in the Virgo Cluster. It's in a group of galaxies called the Local Group, along with our neighbor, the Andromeda Galaxy. But don't you worry, every galaxy in the universe is unique and special in its own way, just like you. So keep looking up at the stars with wonder in your heart, my friend.
