The Coma cluster is a rich cluster of galaxies nested in an even larger supercluster of galaxies. The plane of the supercluster appears to be defined by the Coma cluster itself and another galaxy cluster, Abell 1367, that lies about 40 Mpc (H0 = 75 Mpc km−1s−1 (≡h75)) farther west (Tifft and Gregory 1976).
