Discover the Most Distant Galaxy Cluster Known
The most distant galaxy cluster is aware of that has been discovered by combining data from the Chandra X-ray Observatory at NASA with those obtained by optical and infrared telescopes. The cluster is some 10,200 million light years away and is seen as it was when the universe was only a quarter of its present ageThe galaxy cluster, known as JKCS041, exceeds one billion light years to the previous most distant known cluster.
Clusters of galaxies are the largest gravitationally bound objects in the universe. Finding such a large structure in so early may reveal important information about how the universe evolved in this crucial stage.
"This object is near the limit of distance provided for a clusterThe Celestial Object Detected More Old Far and So Far
Using the VLA radio telescope, a team of astronomers has found much clearer insight into the nature of the most distant object observed so far in the universe, a gigantic stellar explosion in the form of GRB (gamma ray flash).The explosion was detected by NASA's Swift satellite, and scientists soon realized that he was more than 13,000 million light years from Earth. Represents an event that occurred 630 million years after the Big Bang when the universe was only four percent of its present age of 13,700 million years.
This burst provides an unprecedented view of an archaic era of the universe when it was undergoing drastic changes. The primordial cosmic dark was crossed by the lightHubble instruments exhibited in the Smithsonian Museum
WASHINGTON (AP) - Two tools that helped the Hubble Space Telescope to avoid failure in 1993 were recently returned to Earth and are now exhibited at the National Air and Space Smithsonian.The first phase of a new gallery on human space flight will be inaugurated on Thursday at the museum, located in the heart of [...]
