The observed structure of the Universe is hierarchical. Galaxies and clusters of galaxies are concentrated within elongated filamentary chains of various richness. High-density regions of the Universe form superclusters consisting of one or several clusters of galaxies and chains of galaxies surrounding and joining clusters. The space between filaments is void of galaxies. Superclusters and voids form a continuous network of alternating high- and low-density regions in the Universe.
