Description:
Meet the Perseus Galaxy Cluster, home to thousands of galaxies, sitting about 240 million light-years from us... Crazy, isn't it?! And we are watching this from our backyards! Thanks to 19 participants from different places, with telescopes ranging from 2.7" to 11", we reached a total of 392 hours of integration as part of the second Overall Photons project. What's amazing about this? Despite most of the data being captured under suburban skies with less-than-ideal light pollution conditions, I'd say we pretty much nailed it! Each of the fuzzy blobs in the image is a galaxy, together making up the Perseus Cluster, one of the closest clusters of galaxies. The cluster is seen through a foreground of faint stars in our own Milky Way Galaxy.
