Noob here. If the Earth revolves around the sun, and our Solar System revolves around the centre of our galaxy (Milky way)... Around what revolves the huge amount of known galaxies?
Also, do they behave like the most elementary atom?
The largest gravitationally bound structures are local galaxy groups. They revolve about their center of gravity, largely dominated by dark matter. The overall structure of the universe doesn't revolve around anything.
around each other
or god lol

Gravitational influence diminishes over tremendous distance between galaxies.
Instead of rounded forms, galaxies and clusters tend to coalesce into a huge web of filament structures.
Is the multiverse a meme?

4 dimensional space time, parted off into discrete 5th dimensional regions. string theory demands the existence of higher dimensions to unify quantum mechanics and relativity and the equations work. Problem is that there is no way to test the validity of the theories using current technology.
Einstein had it easy compared to modern theoretical physicists, all he had to do was get people to take pictures of an eclipse to prove his theory was correct.

Galaxy clusters are the largest gravitationally bound structures, but yes.

Intergalactic anomalies always spook the shit out of me.

Can your myths explain why galaxies has disk shape?

We actually don't know that for a fact. We can't see enough of the universe to make that assumption and we may never be able to. Entropy suggests that, no matter the size and scale, things will rotate and spiral.
