TL;DR Summary

Astronomers have discovered the Einasto Supercluster, measuring an incredible 360 million light years across and home to 26 quadrillion stars. This supercluster is among the largest structures in the Universe and is named after Professor Jaan Einasto. The study also revealed that galaxies within superclusters are receding from each other slower than the general expansion of the universe due to the gravitational pull of the supercluster, and there is an inverse square relationship between the density and size of a supercluster.
