This four-way collision is occurring in a giant cluster of galaxies, called CL0958+4702, located nearly five billion light years away. Infrared data from the Spitzer Space Telescope are shown in red, visible light data from the WIYN telescope are green, and X-rays from the Chandra X-ray Observatory appear in blue.</P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://chandra.harvard.edu/photo/2007/cl0958/">The Chandra data show hot hydrogen gas at temperatures of a few million degrees. The temperature of this gas tells astronomers how much the cluster weighs. CL0958+4702 is more massive than the Virgo cluster (the nearest cluster) and less massive than the Coma cluster (a nearby giant cluster). The cloud around the colliding galaxies contains billions of stars tossed out during the messy encounter</blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://chandra.harvard.edu/photo/2007/cl0958/"> When green and red overlap in this image, the color becomes orange or yellow</blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/7D32EBB6-C996-40C6-9150-987E6D56863C/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content7.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
