Each galaxy contains millions, billlions, or even trillions of stars. Oh, and this all is just our little local corner of an even broader universe. There are many other galaxy superclusters out there.

The gravitational influence of dark matter is key to understanding the motion of galaxies within superclusters. By continuing to map the motion of galaxies in greater detail, astronomers hope to ...

We’ve seen the Milky Way in superclusters before but not like this. The map of Laniakea, which means ‘immeasurable heaven’ in Hawaiian, shows which galaxies are being pulled by the same ...

The superclusters are still in the process of forming. This fact makes it difficult to pick out exactly what a supercluster is. Recently astronomers have turned to dynamical definitions of a ...

Throughout the universe, galaxies tend to clump together in massive structures that astronomers call superclusters. According to the new map, Earth's galaxy lives near the edge of the Laniakea ...
