The picture taken by the wide-angle camera 3 of the Hubble Space Telescope shows bright fuzzy droplets and luminous shapes. All this galactic cluster RXC J0949.8 + 1707. At the top right you can see a particularly beautiful spiral galaxy, turned to face us. In the last decade, scientists have been able to reveal 3 events of supernovae in it - a bright explosion of a star that reached the final stage of its existence.
In the lower right corner of the galaxy sees the last candidate for a supernova, called SN Antikythera. It shines in visible and infrared light. Other supernovae are called SN Eleanor and SN Alexander. They were present in the data obtained in 2011, but are not visible here. A temporary character confirmed the status of supernovae.
The image was produced as part of the RELICS program, during which it was possible to display 41 massive galactic clusters. The main goal - to find the brightest distant galaxies for further observation in the telescope of James Webb.
