    The Horologium-Reticulum Supercluster, is a massive supercluster spanning around 550 million light-years. [1] It has a mass of around 10 17 solar masses, similar to that of the Laniakea Supercluster, which houses the Milky Way. It is centered on coordinates right ascension 03 h 19 m and declination −50° 02′, and spans an angular area of 12 ...

    The Horologium-Reticulum Supercluster is a galaxy supercluster, second in size only to the Shapley Supercluster in the local universe (anything within 200 mpc of Earth). It contains over 20 Abell galaxy clusters and covers more than 100 deg 2 of the sky, centered roughly at equatorial coordinates α = 03 h 19 m, δ = 50° 2′. [40]
