Unseen Force Draws Our Galaxy Towards the Great Attractor

TL;DR Summary
Astronomers have discovered that our galaxy, along with 400 other galaxies, is being pulled towards something called the Great Attractor, which is located beyond the "Zone of Avoidance" in the sky. This unseen force is believed to be a massive object that exerts gravitational influence on the galaxies in our local area of the universe. However, the expansion of the universe will eventually cause us to separate from the Great Attractor and other superclusters.
