X-rays From The Perseus Cluster Core
The Perseus Cluster of thousands of galaxies is 320 million light-years distant. It is one of the most massive objects in the Universe. At its core lies the giant galaxy Perseus A, accreting matter as gas and galaxies fall into it. This Chandra X-ray Observatory image shows details of X-ray emission from this monster galaxy and surrounding hot cluster gas.
