Template:Infobox : Celestial body (Quarior)The Laniakea Supercluster is the home supercluster of the milky way and over 100,000 other galaxies.

This supercluster is home both The Confederacy and The Commonwealth. The Commonwealth is in most of the Laniakea, and the Confederacy is in some western portions.

Laniakea is composed of many subparts:

  • Virgo Supercluster
  • Hydra-Centaurus Supercluster
  • The Great Attractor
  • Hydra Supercluster
  • Norma Supercluster
  • Pavo-indus Supercluster
  • Southern Supercluster

Neighboring bodies

  • Shapley Supercluster
  • Coma Supercluster
  • Perseus-Pisces Supercluster

This cluster and the neighboring bodies are all part of the Pisces-Cetus Supercluster Complex.
