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. [1]
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 ...

The Perseus cluster (Abell 426) is a cluster of galaxies in the constellation Perseus. It has a recession speed of 5,366 km/ s and a diameter of 863 ′ . [ 1 ] It is one of the most massive objects in the known universe , containing thousands of galaxies immersed in a vast cloud of multimillion-degree gas.
NGC 1023, also known as the Perseus Lenticular Galaxy, [3] is a barred lenticular galaxy, a member of the NGC 1023 group of galaxies in the Local Supercluster. Distance measurements vary from 9.3 to 19.7 million parsecs (30 to 64 million light-years). [1] The supermassive black hole at the core has a mass of (4.4 ± 0.5) × 10 7 M ☉. [4]
NGC 1275 (also known as Perseus A or Caldwell 24) is a type 1.5 Seyfert galaxy [3] located around 237 million light-years away [2] in the direction of the constellation Perseus. NGC 1275 is a member of the large Perseus Cluster of galaxies.
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.
Di Nel la H. et al found no evidence of a connection between Pavo–Indus and the Perseus–Pisces Supercluster. [11] However, Tully et al. revealed the existence of a filamentary extension of the Pavo–Indus Supercluster known as the Arch [10] that caps the Local Void in the supergalactic north and provides a connection to the Perseus–Pisces Supercluster [14] [15] before terminating close ...
