A Distant Cluster of Galaxies

NASA APOD
COSMIC MESSAGE

Every bright object in this 1994 Hubble Space Telescope photograph is a galaxy. This rich cluster, CL 0939+4713, is almost halfway across the visible universe. Most of its galaxies are spirals, which indicates that distant, older clusters had more spirals than nearby, younger clusters, which are usually dominated by elliptical galaxies.
