This release contains images and catalogs of star-forming regions, globular clusters, nearby galaxies, fields of the Fornax cluster and Perseus cluster, as well as more distant galaxy clusters. [35] The content of the ERO is described in one paper submitted to Astronomy & Astrophysics .
IC 342 (also known as Caldwell 5) is an intermediate spiral galaxy in the constellation Camelopardalis, located relatively close to the Milky Way.Despite its size and actual brightness, its location behind dusty areas near the galactic equator makes it difficult to observe, leading to the nickname "The Hidden Galaxy", [4] [1] though it can readily be detected even with binoculars. [5]
The galaxy displays a significant radial velocity difference from the cluster as a whole, indicating that it may oscillate back-and-forth through the cluster and is now passing through the more dense core at high velocity. [8] The morphological classification of IC 4051 is E2, indicating a slightly oval-shaped elliptical galaxy. The structure ...
The first five color images captured by the European Space Agency’s Euclid telescope were revealed Tuesday, capturing previously unseen cosmic details.
The images spanned four areas of the relatively nearby universe, including 1,000 galaxies belonging to the massive Perseus cluster just 240 million light years away, and more than 100,000 galaxies ...

MACS J0025.4-1222 is a galaxy cluster created by the collision of two galaxy clusters, and is part of the MAssive Cluster Survey (MACS). Like the earlier discovered Bullet Cluster, this cluster shows a clear separation between the centroid of the intergalactic gas (of majority of the normal, or baryonic, mass) and the colliding clusters.
The Cluster Lensing And Supernova survey with Hubble (CLASH) was a program on the Hubble Space Telescope to observe 25 massive galaxy clusters. CLASH was one of three programs selected (along with CANDELS and PHAT ) in the first class of Hubble multi-cycle treasury programs, which were designed to tackle large questions unanswerable through ...
