The Local Group is a collection of over 50 galaxies, including our own galaxy, the Milky Way. This group is part of a larger structure in the universe called a galaxy cluster. The Local Group is relatively small, spanning about 10 million light-years, and contains notable galaxies like the Andromeda Galaxy and the Triangulum Galaxy.
These galaxies are bound together by gravity and are constantly moving. The Local Group is an exciting area for astronomers because it allows them to study galaxy formation and evolution in a relatively close and accessible region of space. Understanding these galaxies helps us learn more about the universe as a whole.
