List Of Galaxy Groups And Clusters
This article lists some galaxy groups and galaxy clusters. Defining the limits of galaxy clusters is imprecise as many clusters are still forming. In particular, clusters close to the Milky Way tend to be classified as galaxy clusters even when they are much smaller than more distant clusters. Clusters exhibiting strong evidence of dark matter Some clusters exhibiting strong evidence of dark matter. Named groups and clusters This is a list of galaxy groups and clusters that are well known by something other than an entry in a catalog or list, or a set of coordinates, or a systematic designation. Clusters Groups The major nearby groups and clusters are generally named after the constellation they lie in. Many groups are named after the leading galaxy in the group. This represents an ad hoc systematic naming system. Groups and clusters visible to the unaided eye The Local Group contains the largest number of visible galaxies with the naked eye. However, it ...

List Of Open Clusters
This is a list of open clusters located in the Milky Way. An open cluster is a gravitationally bound association of up to a few thousand stars that all formed from the same giant molecular cloud. There are over 1,000 known open clusters in the Milky Way galaxy, but the actual total may be up to ten times higher. The estimated half-life, half-lives of clusters, after which half the original cluster members will have been lost, range from 150 million to 800 million years, depending on the original density.

List Of Globular Clusters
This is a list of globular clusters. The apparent magnitude does not include an extinction correction. Milky Way These are globular clusters within the halo of the Milky Way galaxy. The diameter is in minutes of arc as seen from Earth. For reference, the J2000 epoch celestial coordinates of the Galactic Center are right ascension , declination . A high proportion of globular clusters are located in the Ophiuchus and Sagittarius constellations, both of which lie in the direction of the galactic core.
