Answer:

The Local Group/ Virgo Cluster

Step-by-step explanation:

Our solar system is part of a galaxy called the Milky Way galaxy. The Milky Way galaxy is part of a small cluster of just over 30 galaxies known as the "Local Group." This cluster resides in a larger cluster of galaxies called the "Virgo Cluster" (sometimes called the Virgo Supercluster). The Virgo cluster contains just about 2000 galaxies.
