The center of the Eridanus Cluster is roughly 85 million light years from Earth, and contains about 73 main galaxies. It is located in the constellation

Constellation

In modern astronomy, a constellation is an internationally defined area of the celestial sphere. These areas are grouped around asterisms, patterns formed by prominent stars within apparent proximity to one another on Earth's night sky....

 Eridanus

Eridanus (constellation)

Eridanus is a constellation. It is represented as a river; its name is the Ancient Greek name for the Po River. It was one of the 48 constellations listed by the 2nd century astronomer Ptolemy, and it remains one of the 88 modern constellations. It is the sixth largest of the modern...

Fornax Cluster

At a distance of approximately 62.0 Mly , the Fornax Cluster is the second richest cluster of galaxies within 100 million light-years, although it is much smaller than the Virgo Cluster. It lies primarily in the constellation Fornax, and may be associated with the nearby Eridanus Group...

, and is sometimes called the "Fornax II cluster."

Name	RA equatorial coordinates	Dec equatorial coordinates	Blue Mag Photographic magnitude Before the advent of photometers which accurately measure the brightness of astronomical objects, the apparent magnitude of an object was obtained by taking a picture of it with a camera. These images, made on photoemulsive film or plates, were more sensitive to the blue end of the visual spectrum...	Type	Size	Size kly	RV km/s
