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 else can I help you with?
What is the estimated number of superclusters since there are 100 billion galaxies in the universe?
Ten superclusters.
What pulls superclusters together?
The gravitational attraction of the mass in the galaxies comprising the cluster.
Is Jupiter bigger than the local supercluster?
No, not at all. Jupiter is part of the Solar System, which is part of the Milky Way galaxy, which is part of the Local Group (of Galaxies), which is part of the Local Superclusters. Jupiter's mass is nothing when compared to the mass of Superclusters.
What do all the superclusters we can see compose?
All the superclusters we can see compose the large-scale structure of the universe, forming a vast network of galaxy clusters and groups. These superclusters are interconnected by filaments of dark matter and gas, creating a web-like structure known as the cosmic web. They represent the largest known gravitationally-bound structures, playing a crucial role in the distribution of galaxies and the evolution of the universe.
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.
List the structures in order galaxies planets superclusters star clusters galaxy groups planetary systems galaxy clusters?
Planetary systems, star clusters, galaxy groups, galaxies, galaxy clusters, superclusters in order from smallest to largest.
Why do galaxies clump together in clusters and superclusters?
Galaxies clump together in clusters and superclusters due to the force of gravity. Gravity pulls galaxies towards each other, causing them to form groups and larger structures. This clustering is a natural result of the way matter is distributed in the universe.
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 do we call objects that emit light in space?
Stars, quasars, clusters, nebulae, galaxies, superclusters, the CMBR (Cosmic Microwave Background Radiation).
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 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
