This ultra-deep view of the Antlia Cluster reveals a spectacular array of galaxy types among the hundreds that make up its population. Galaxy clusters are some of the largest known structures in ...

The Antlia galaxy cluster is a group of at least 230 galaxies held together by gravity; this cluster is unusual — unlike most other galaxy clusters, it appears to have no dominant galaxy within it.
