Laniakea: Our home supercluster
nature video
A short Nature video on the discovery that our home supercluster is Laniakea, redefined by mapping the flow of galaxies rather than their density. It names the structure with a Hawaiian word meaning 'immeasurable heaven'.
Linked as a quick visual intro to Laniakea and large-scale cosmic structure.
