The connections between the important Pavo-Indus and Centaurus components of Laniakea, the extension up to Ophiuchus cluster, the filament from the Antlia Wall that ultimately connects to the ...

According to the new map, Earth's galaxy lives near the edge of the Laniakea supercluster, which measures 500 million light-years in diameter and includes roughly 100,000 galaxies. The region is ...

much bigger supercluster — Laniakea. (The name, aptly enough, means “immeasurable heavens” in Hawaiian.) So what happens when we zoom out? The paper notes that Laniakea borders another ...

The large-scale structure of the Universe is an intricate network of clusters, filaments and superclusters of galaxies, together with cosmic voids that are almost empty of galaxies. Superclusters ...

It looks like we can now add another locality, squeezed in between the last two: Laniakea (la-NEE-uh-KAY-uh I think is pretty close to how you pronounce it), a galactic supercluster. The folks ...

Our own supercluster, Laniakea, consists of approximately 100,000 galaxies, more than 10 times richer than the largest known clusters. Yet these superclusters only appear to be structures.

and that's how we've recognized that the Virgo supercluster is just one individual branch of a much larger structure known as Laniakea, which contains an astounding 100,000 galaxies. And that is ...

You live on Earth->Solar System->Milky Way Galaxy->Local Cluster->Virgo Cluster->Virgo Supercluster->Laniakea. Thanks to new deep sky surveys, astronomers now think all those places are part of an ...
