About this image

A grouping with a range of structures imaged while playing with stack settings in SharpCap4.1.  On the lower edge is a super-cluster, which Aladin identifies as ACO-1354. From a Google Search this is a catalogue of superclusters: Abell-Corwin-Olowin (1987).

I found this link to a study on superclusters and voids: https://aas.aanda.org/articles/aas/full/1997/07/ds1185/ds1185.html  which may be of interest ( i thought so )
