The second most massive galaxy cluster next to El Gordo is RCS2 J2327, a galaxy cluster with the mass of 2 quadrillion suns. Also has a systematic designation of ACT-CL J0102-4915. [6] [7] [8] Musket Ball Cluster: Named in comparison to the Bullet Cluster, as this one is older and slower galaxy cluster merger than the Bullet Cluster.
This is a list of NGC objects 6001–7000 from the New General Catalogue (NGC). The astronomical catalogue is composed mainly of star clusters , nebulae , and galaxies . Other objects in the catalogue can be found in the other subpages of the list of NGC objects .
These four near-equals at the core of galaxy cluster CL 0958+4702 are in the process of merging. [149] Galaxy protocluster LBG-2377: z=3.03 This was announced as the most distant galaxy merger ever discovered. It is expected that this proto-cluster of galaxies will merge to form a brightest cluster galaxy, and become the core of a larger galaxy ...
Shapley 20 Cluster: 03 h 30 m 34.6 s: −52° 33′ 12″ 3 I-II 3158: Shapley 17 Cluster: 03 h 42 m 39.6 s: −53° 37′ 50″ 2 I-II 3192: MCS/MACS J0358.8-2955 Eridanus: Comprises such a huge amount of mass that the galaxy cluster noticeably curves spacetime around it, making it into a gravitational lens.
The following is a list of NGC objects, that is objects listed in the New General Catalogue (NGC). It is one of the largest comprehensive astronomical catalogues for deep sky objects such as star clusters, nebulae, and galaxies.

Alter (open star clusters) (for example: Alter 1 at 0:31:56.9 / +63°09'47" in Cassiopeia) (Alter 1 = King 14 = Alter Cluster) Alves / Yun (open star clusters) AM — Arp-Madore catalogue of open and globular star clusters (Halton Arp / Barry F. Madore) (for example: Arp-Madore 1 in Horologium, Arp-Madore 2 in Puppis)
MACS J0152.5-2852 is a massive galaxy cluster. Almost every pixel seen in the image is a galaxy, each containing billions of stars. [1]Galaxy groups and clusters are the largest known gravitationally bound objects to have arisen thus far in the process of cosmic structure formation. [2]
