Its a point in our galaxy’s supercluster (a structure made of about 100,000 galaxies) that acts as the center of gravity for the entire thing. It’s a lot like how the sun is the center of gravity for our solar system, except a lot bigger.

Its probably made up of a lot of galaxies packed very densely into a small area.
