The Local Cluster is a cluster of star systems located in the core of the Local Supercluster. It extends outward with Sol at its approximate center, outward to the Lyran Veil on its coreward edge, the Amazonia Cluster on its trailing edge, the Calypso Deeps on its rimward edge, and the Indian Arm on its spinward edge. It contains five constituent subclusters and approximately 39 star systems.
The cluster includes 13 sovereign states: The Artemis Colonial Republic, the Union of Arcturan Republics, the Free State of Banjuna-Mahara, the Callisto Colonial Republic, the United Centauri Republic, the United States of Juno, the Kumasi Colonial Republic, the Salamis Colonial Republic, the Silvanus Colonial Republic, the Sirius Federation, the United Provinces of Tau Ceti, the Tetus People's Republic, and the Republic of Vesta.
Etymology
The name "Local Cluster" follows the precedent established by astronomer Edwin Hubble's naming of the galaxy group including the Milky Way as the "Local Group".
