Messier 87 Galaxy Flag - The Capital Flag our Galactic Super Cluster


The Messier 87 Galaxy Flag uses four colours: red, yellow, black and blue.  Messier 87 is at the heart of the Super Virgo Cluster.  It is one of the most massive galaxies in our neighborhood - the Super Virgo Cluster is visible to the naked eye.

The two main parts of this flag are a square and blue navigator's compass pointing towards the center.  Messier 87 is one of the most massive objects in the heavens.  It has power on levels yet to be charted on a scientific scale.  We are a remote part of this galaxy's neighborhood.  The 'Golden Grain' of Virgo is our proverbial big brother or rather big sister looking out for us.
