The Great Attractor is a region of space that seems to be pulling nearby galaxies towards it.

The mystery is, we don’t see anything there that would have mass to gravitationally pull things towards it.

It is likely a large clump of dark matter, which we can’t see, but it has mass, and therefore gravity.
