... 2014 May 5 . Galaxy Cluster Magnifies Distant Supernova . Image Credit: NASA , ESA , C. McCully ( Rutgers U. ) et al. Explanation: How do you calibrate a huge gravitational lens? ... A new calibration technique has been tested recently that consists of waiting for supernovas of a very specific type to occur behind a galaxy cluster, and then figuring out how much the cluster must have magnified these supernovas through gravitational lensing. ...

... July 9, 1999 . NGC 7789: Galactic Star Cluster . ... Explanation: At 1.6 billion years old, this cluster of stars is beginning to show its age. NGC 7789 is an open or galactic star cluster about 8,000 light-years distant toward the constellation Cassiopeia and lies near the plane of our Milky Way galaxy. ... These have evolved from main sequence stars like the sun into the gaggle of red giant stars apparent (with a reddish-yellow cast) in this lovely composite color image. ... About APOD > . ...

... Globular cluster NGC 2808, elliptical galaxy NGC 2986, and the Sextans Dwarf . ... Cosmic Adventures . ... Astronomers use supernovae to gauge power of cosmic lenses . ... The power of a galaxy cluster as a gravitational lens depends on the total amount of matter in the cluster, including dark matter, which is the source of most of a cluster's gravity. ... Astronomers estimate they would need about 20 supernovae spread out behind a single cluster to create a map of an entire cluster of galaxies. ...

... Kalirai and Harvey Richer of the University of British Columbia led the study, which began as an investigation of a globular star cluster in the Milky Way galaxy known as NGC 6397. ... Within the population of stars and galaxies behind NGC 6397, the Hubble image revealed a large elliptical galaxy that contains several hundred globular clusters. ... In fact, a single giant star in NGC 6397 appears 10 million times brighter than one of the distant globular clusters. ...
