Clusters Exhibiting Strong Evidence of Dark Matter
| Galaxy cluster | Notes |
|---|---|
| Bullet Cluster | This collision between two galaxy clusters seems to have left a dark matter cluster in the space between them. |
| Abell 520 | This is actually a collision between two galaxy clusters. The galaxies and the dark matter seems to have separated out into separate dark and light cores. |
| Abell 2142 | A collision between two massive, X-ray luminous galaxy clusters. |
| Cl 0024+17 (ClG 0024+16, ZwCl 0024+1652) |
This is a recently coalesced merger of galaxy clusters, which has resulted in a ring of dark matter around the galaxies, yet to be redistributed. |

Famous quotes containing the words clusters, exhibiting, strong, evidence, dark and/or matter:
“Where we such clusters had,
As made us nobly wild, not mad;
And yet each verse of thine
Outdid the meat, outdid the frolic wine.”
—Robert Herrick (1591–1674)
“To a first approximation, the intentional strategy consists of treating the object whose behavior you want to predict as a rational agent with beliefs and desires and other mental states exhibiting what Brentano and others call intentionality.”
—Daniel Clement Dennett (b. 1942)
“If I were as I once was, the strong hoofs crushing the sand and the shells,
Coming out of the sea as the dawn comes, a chaunt of love on my lips,
Not coughing, my head on my knees, and praying, and wroth with the bells,
I would leave no saint’s head on his body from Rachlin to Bera of ships.”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
“However backwards the world has been in former ages in the discovery of such points as GOD never meant us to know,—we have been more successful in our own days:Mthousands can trace out now the impressions of this divine intercourse in themselves, from the first moment they received it, and with such distinct intelligence of its progress and workings, as to require no evidence of its truth.”
—Laurence Sterne (1713–1768)
“What seest thou else
In the dark backward and abysm of time?”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“If you’re anxious for to shine in the high esthetic line as a man
of culture rare,
You must get up all the germs of the transcendental terms, and plant
them everywhere.
You must lie upon the daisies and discourse in novel phrases of your
complicated state of mind,
The meaning doesn’t matter if it’s only idle chatter of a
transcendental kind.”
—Sir William Schwenck Gilbert (1836–1911)
