Hubble Space Telescope Captures Merging Galaxy Cluster
NASA's Hubble Space Telescope has imaged galaxy cluster CL0016+1609 (also known as MACS J0018.5+1626), revealing it to be two clusters merging along the line of sight. Researchers used Hubble data to map dark matter distribution via gravitational lensing, and the RELICS survey identified approximately 300 high-redshift candidate galaxies amplified by the cluster.
