What did the Hubble Telescope discover about our galaxy? What is the brightest star in the Aquila constellation? What is Alpha Centauri? What is the luminosity of Rigel? What is Deneb? What is the Auriga constellation? What is an extrasolar planetary system? What is a supercluster?Explore...
000 Starssite, which they call an "interactive visualization of the stellar neighborhood." It will take you on a tour of our solar system and our galaxy, which is much smaller than a supercluster but still enough to blow your mind. For kids (and adults!) who want ...
Note: The Laniakea Supercluster, which contains about 100,000 galaxies, may be a part of the Virgo Supercluster. The observable universe is thought to contain around 100 billion galaxies. Our Sun is a star that is located in the center of our solar system. The Milky Way ...
When power is locked into the system and it is not easy to kill people, the earth is overcrowded, so we can only digest the population through war, wipe out the weak in the war, and the population suddenly drops sharply, which is the result of repeated world wars. Every war, civilizati...
Most spectacularly of all, there seems to be a limit to the size and mass of structures. You may have heard of our local supercluster: Laniakea, which contains the Milky Way, the Local Group, the Virgo cluster, and many other clusters and groups that appear to be arranged in a spindly,...
Think big. Really big. Like, cosmic big. How big can things in the Universe get? Is a galaxy big? What about a supercluster? What is the biggest thing in the Universe? Our observable Universe is a sphere 96 billion light-years across, and the entire Universe might be infinite in size...
This group contains more than 50 galaxies (mostly dwarf galaxies). The total size of the Local Group is 10 million light-years across, and it’s estimated to have a mass of 1.29 billion solar masses. The Local Group is just one collection of galaxies in the even bigger Virgo Supercluster...
which is ruled by it and the Andromeda Galaxy and is part of the Virgo Supercluster. At the biggest scale, these associations are mostly arranged into sheets and filaments surrounded by immense spaces. The biggest structure of galaxies yet to be recognized is a cluster of superclusters that has...
are moving toward something even larger. It’s known as the Shapley Supercluster. It contains more than 8000 galaxies and has a mass of more than ten million billion Suns. The Shapley Supercluster is, in fact, the most massive galaxy cluster within a billion light years, and we and every ...
orbit and what you should do to enter into a stable one around earth, or any other celestial body. supercluster explains is a video series that illuminates basic space science concepts using short, easy-to-understand animations. this episode explains a fundamental part of flying in outer space:...
