Draco Supercluster

Draco Supercluster (SCL 114) is a galaxy supercluster in the constellation Draco.[1][2][3] It is located at a distance of 300 Mpc h−1 on a side of a void of diameter of about 130 Mpc h−1. The near side of the void is bordered by the Ursa Major supercluster. The estimated size of the supercluster reaches 410 million light years and a mass of 1017 M☉, making it one of the largest and most massive superclusters known in the observable universe.[4][5]

gollark: Basically, spaghetti code is where the whole thing is a horrible tangled mess, yes.
gollark: My theory is that DC is based on spaghetti code so TJ09 can't change stuff without working for ages.
gollark: I just... Why?
gollark: (Pagination + quick rule summary + indicator if person you're trading with is egglocked + few other small things probably)
gollark: God-Emperor TJ09 could fix the whole thing in a few hours, but nooo...
