Summary

Description
English: Composite image showing the galaxy cluster 1E 0657-56, better known as bullet cluster. The image in background showing the visible spectrum of light stems from Magellan and Hubble Space Telescope images. The pink overlay shows the x-ray emission (recorded by Chandra Telescope) of the colliding clusters, the blue one represents the mass distribution of the clusters calculated from gravitational lens effects.
Scale: Full image is 7.5 arcmin wide, 5.4 arcmin high
Deutsch: Montage aus verschiedenen Bildern des Galaxieclusters 1E 0657-56, besser bekannt als Bullet-Cluster. Das Hintergrundbild zeigt eine Aufnahme des sichtbaren Spektrums, das vom Magellan-Teleskop und dem Hubble-Weltraumteleskop aufgenommen wurde. Darüber liegt in pink die vom Chandra-Teleskop aufgenommene Röntgenstrahlung, die vom Cluster ausgeht und in blau die Massenverteilung im Cluster, die aus Gravitationslinseneffekten berechnet wurde.
Français : Image composite montrant l'amas de galaxies 1E 0657-56, aussi connu sous le nom d'amas du Boulet. Cette image montre en arrière-plan des images de galaxies qui proviennent des télescopes Hubble et Magellan. Le revêtement en rose montre les émissions de rayons-x (enregistrées par le télescope Chandra) de la collision des deux amas, alors que les émissions en bleu représentent la distribution de la masse de ces amas, calculée à partir de l'effet de lentille gravitationnelle.
