A galaxy cloud is a group of galaxy clusters and a substructure of a supercluster. The Local Supercluster (to which the Milky Way belongs) contains the Virgo cluster, the Canes Venatici Cloud and the Virgo II Cloud.
Famous quotes containing the words galaxy and/or cloud:
“for it is not so much to know the self
as to know it as it is known
by galaxy and cedar cone,
as if birth had never found it
and death could never end it:”
—Archie Randolph Ammons (b. 1926)
“That which is given to see
At any moment is the residue, shadowed
In gold or emerging into the clear bluish haze
Of uncertainty. We come back to ourselves
Through the rubbish of cloud and tree-spattered pavement.
These days stand like vapor under the trees.”
—John Ashbery (b. 1927)
