Filament (Astronomy)

In astronomy, filaments are one of the largest known structures in the Universe, thread-like structures with a typical length of 70 to 150 megaparsec that form the boundaries between large voids in the universe. Filaments consist of galaxies; parts where a large number of galaxies are very close to each other are called superclusters.
