Notes
Found in Sloan Digital Sky Survey data and nearly three times the length of the CfA2 wall — big enough that whether it counts as one structure or several is a question about definitions rather than observation.
Open on the The Ladder of Scale shelf — the interactive card, the filters, and everything alongside it.
