A galaxy cluster without signs of collisions has been found 8.4 billion light years away.
Galaxy clusters merge with other clusters and groups of galaxies to increase in size.
This is the most distant cluster like this found yet, giving hints to galaxy cluster growth.
NASA’s Chandra X-ray Observatory and other telescopes were used for this discovery.
