Groups and Clusters of Galaxies

This is part of my complete intro Astronomy class that I taught at Willam Paterson University and CUNY Hunter. If you want to watch all the videos in the correct order, please visit my website at http://www.jasonkendall.com

Galaxies appear in groups and clusters. Their mutual gravity reaches out across the unimaginably huge distances to pull them together over cosmic time. As a result, these groups are rich with interactions and varied appearances. We find monster galaxies that cannibalize others and we find the largest gravitationally bound structures of the cosmos.
