#KnowledgeBit: A #Supercluster is a large group of smaller galaxy clusters or galaxy groups; they are among the largest known structures in the universe.

The #MilkyWay is part of the Local Group galaxy group (which contains more than 54 galaxies), which in turn is part of the Virgo Supercluster, which is part of the #Laniakea Supercluster.

The number of superclusters in the observable universe is estimated to be 10 million.

Key gravitational structures unveiled in new cosmic research

A group of international scientists has made significant strides in understanding the large-scale structure of the Universe by identifying critical gravitational regions, termed "basins of attraction."
