Coma cluster of galaxies Abell 1656 - Coma cluster of galaxies - The Comas cluster...

IMAGE number
PIX4565294
Image title
Coma cluster of galaxies Abell 1656 - Coma cluster of galaxies - The Comas cluster is a large cluster of galaxies, comprising several thousand galaxies. It is located more than 300 million light years ago in the constellation Coma Berenices (Berenice Hair). This photo from the Hubble Space Telescope shows part of the cluster of a brilliant spiral galaxy, IC 4040, in the top left, and many elliptical galaxies. Also known as Abell 1656, the Coma Cluster is over 300 million light - years away. The cluster, named after its parent constellation Coma Berenices, is near the Milky Way's north pole. This places the Coma Cluster in an area unobscured by dust and gas from the plane of the Milky Way, and easily visible by Earth viewers. This Hubble image consists of a section of the cluster that is roughly one - third of the way out from the center of the cluster. One bright spiral galaxy is visible in the upper left of the image. It is distinctly brighter and bluer than galaxies surrounding it. A series of dusty spiral arms appears reddish brown against the whiter disk of the galaxy, and gives rise to the idea that this galaxy has been disturbed at some point in the past. The other galaxies in the image are either elliptical, S0 galaxies, or background galaxies far beyond the Coma Cluster sphere
