*this hawaiian dream of a feathery supercluster connecting strands of light.. one feather for now but is this one of one bird in one flock.. our minds wander and weaken no answer there Who am I...?*

Until now, the Milky Way was believed to be one galaxy in the 2,000 that make up what's known as the Virgo "supercluster." But as the new map shows, the Milky Way's 100 billion stars are actually part of something 100 times bigger: a supercluster of galaxies astronomers have christened Laniakea, meaning "immense heavens" in the Hawaiian language.
