Clusters of galaxies are groups of galaxies that are gravitationally
attracted
to one another. Clusters may come in small
groups of a dozen to two dozen members, such as the Local Group which
includes the Milky Way and the Andromeda galaxy. Larger clusters of
galaxies can contain several thousand members. On even larger
scales, galaxy superclusters may exist, containing about a hundred
clusters of galaxies.
