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)
“Fine art is the subtlest, the most seductive, the most effective instrument of moral propaganda in the world, excepting only the example of personal conduct; and I waive even this exception in favor of the art of the stage, because it works by exhibiting examples of personal conduct made intelligible and moving to crowds of unobservant unreflecting people to whom real life means nothing.”
—George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)
“Where there is plenty of light there is strong shadow.”
—Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe (1749–1832)
“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)
“Deep with the first dead lies London’s daughter,
Robed in the long friends,
The grains beyond age, the dark veins of her mother,
Secret by the unmourning water
Of the riding Thames.
After the first death, there is no other.”
—Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)
“No matter how much faculty of idle seeing a man has, the step from knowing to doing is rarely taken. ‘Tis a step out of the chalk circle of imbecility into fruitfulness.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
