  2. Perseus–Pisces Supercluster - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perseus–Pisces_Supercluster

    The Perseus–Pisces Supercluster is one of two dominant concentrations of galaxies (the other being the Local supercluster) in the nearby universe (within 300 million light years). This supercluster also borders a prominent void, the Taurus Void , and is part of the Perseus–Pegasus Filament which stretches for roughly a billion light years .

    It consisted of two known rich clusters and one newly discovered cluster as a result of the study that discovered it. The then known clusters were Cl 1604+4304 (z=0.897) and Cl 1604+4321 (z=0.924), which then known to have 21 and 42 known galaxies respectively. The then newly discovered cluster was located at 16 h 04 m 25.7 s, +43° 14′ 44.7 ...

    NGC 1245 is an open cluster in the constellation Perseus. It was discovered by William Herschel in 11 December 1786. [2] It is located 3° southwest of alpha Persei and can be spotted with 10x50 binoculars. [3] The cluster is nearly 1 billion years old. [4] NGC 1245 has about 200 members the brightest of which are of 12th magnitude. [5]

    MACS J0152.5-2852 is a massive galaxy cluster. Almost every pixel seen in the image is a galaxy, each containing billions of stars. [1]Galaxy groups and clusters are the largest known gravitationally bound objects to have arisen thus far in the process of cosmic structure formation. [2]

    Galaxies and galaxy clusters < 50 M ly away from Earth plotted in the supergalactic plane. The supergalactic coordinate system is a reference frame for the supercluster of galaxies that contains the Milky Way galaxy, referenced to a local relatively flat collection of galaxy clusters used to define the supergalactic plane.

    This was the first super-large large-scale structure or pseudo-structure in the universe to be discovered. The CfA Homunculus lies at the heart of the Great Wall, and the Coma Supercluster forms most of the homunculus structure. The Coma Cluster lies at the core.

  9. Perseus–Pegasus Filament - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perseus–Pegasus_Filament

    The Perseus–Pegasus Filament is a galaxy filament containing the Perseus–Pisces Supercluster and stretching for roughly a billion light-years (or over 300/h Mpc). Currently, it is considered to be one of the largest known structures in the universe. [note 1] This filament is adjacent to the Pisces–Cetus Supercluster Complex.
