Dark matter

A composite image of the galaxy cluster Cl 0024+17 taken by the Hubble Space Telescope shows a gravitational lensing effect of a dark matter ring-like structure.

A truly beautiful ghostly composite image taken by the Hubble Space Telescope, when seen in hi-res you can see dozens of galaxies including some spiral galaxies much like our own. would make a nice featured picture; This image appears in the article about Dark matter ,created by NASA, ESA, M. J. Jee & H. Ford et al. (Johns Hopkins U.)

  • This image is tiny compared to some of our recent NASA FPs. I'll try to upload the high-resolution version, but right now it seems like my computer is going to crash just opening it... I won't judge the actual picture until I can see how the high-resolution version looks, though. J Are you green? 23:17, 18 May 2007 (UTC) reply
I had no problem with the Full resolution 3921 × 3921 pixel image that you uploaded. nicely done btw, people will be able to easily make out many of the galaxies at that resolution, the lower thumbnail resolution of the image speaks to the gravitational lensing of dark matter. Sort of a two for one deal, Galaxies and Dark matter :) ▪◦▪ ≡ЅiREX≡ Talk 06:52, 19 May 2007 (UTC) reply
