Pisces–Cetus Supercluster Complex

The Pisces–Cetus Supercluster Complex is a galaxy filament. It includes the Laniakea Supercluster which contains the Virgo Supercluster lobe which in turn contains the Local Group, the galaxy cluster that includes the Milky Way. This filament is adjacent to the Perseus–Pegasus Filament. Astronomer R. Brent Tully of the University of Hawaii's Institute of Astronomy identified the Complex in 1987.
