The cluster of galaxies is located in the constellation Ursa Major. The picture has unusual illustrations.
The Hubble Space Telescope took a bright picture of a large cluster of galaxies called Abell 1351, located in the constellation Ursa Major. This was reported on the website of the observatory dedicated to the operation of the device.
The illustrations in the picture are the consequences of the effect of gravitational lensing. This is a phenomenon that occurs when space and time are distorted by a large celestial body. This affects the path of light that passes through it.
It was noted that gravitational lensing comes in two types: weak and strong. That being said, both are useful to astronomers. In this way, scientists can investigate the mass distribution within a lens cluster of galaxies.
Recall that the previous Hubble took a picture of a “triple” galaxy called SGAS 0033 + 02, located in the constellation of Pisces.
