NASA's Chandra X-ray Telescope Sees Crossing Gas Streams in Distant Galaxy Cluster (Image)

Criss-crossing streams of superheated gas create a “chaotic landscape” in a distant galaxy cluster.

from NASA Chandra X-ray Telescope detected two new streams of gas behind a galaxy within a cluster called Zwicky 8338, or Z8338, located about 670 million light years from Land. Together, the two streams form a huge, comet-like tail of hot gas that stretches across 1.6 million light years, according to a statement of the space agency.
