Looks pretty compact.

That’s actually quite small.

my question is why do Nodes fit in?

from
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Observable_universe

Stars are organized into galaxies, which in turn form galaxy groups, galaxy clusters, superclusters, sheets, walls and filaments, which are separated by immense voids.

Hmmm.

Are you sure that your notion that there is no large-scale structure to the universe is correct?

I don’t know. It’s rather a stupid heading in that it includes Nodes, but they’re not mentioned in the text.

Ah, now I understand the question. The surfaces of voids are sheets. Two or more sheets meet at a filament, and two or more filaments meet at a nodes. Most nodes are better known by the name “clusters”. For example, the Virgo and Fornax clusters are examples of nodes. When nodes are close together and connected by one or more thick filaments and/or walls (which are thick sheets) then the result is known as a supercluster.

The local group is a small thickening along an individual filament, so is not big enough to be called a node/cluster.

I noticed that too

Nodes is in the content section and in the heading

no where else
