Image title
Cl0024+17 galaxy cluster Cl0024+17 - Galaxy cluster Cl0024+17 - Cl0024+17 galaxy cluster located about 5 billion years ago - light in the constellation Pisces. This image reveals to us, by a gravitational mirage effect, the deformed image of a galaxy, located behind the cluster at a distance of about 10 billion years - light from the Earth. By studying this gravitational mirage, astronomers discovered the presence of black matter around this cluster. Image obtained by the Hubble space telescope in November 2004 with the ACS camera. An international team of astronomers using the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope has discovered a ghostly ring of dark matter that was formed long ago during a titanic collision between two massive galaxy clusters. It is the first time that a dark matter distribution has been found that differs substantially from the distribution of ordinary matter. This image shows the galaxy cluster Cl 0024+17 (ZWCl 0024+1652) located at about 5 billion light - years as seen by Hubble's Advanced Camera for Surveys. The image displays faint faraway background galaxies that had their light bent by the cluster's strong gravitational field. By mapping the distorted light and using it to deduce how dark matter is distributed in the cluster, astronomers spotted the ring of dark matter. One of the background galaxies is located about two times further away than the yellow cluster galaxies in the foreground, and has been multiple - imaged into five separate arc - shaped components, seen in blue
