Galaxy clusters are the largest gravitationally bound structures in the universe. They contain hundreds or thousands of galaxies, along with vast amounts of hot gas and dark matter.
The space between galaxies in a cluster is not empty. It is filled with superheated plasma that emits X-rays, revealing the cluster’s true mass.
Clusters trace the large-scale structure of the universe and help astronomers study dark matter and cosmic evolution.
