Astronomy.com - A star cluster hides star clusters 4/2/08 11:35 AM News A star cluster hides star clusters Deep Hubble images of NGC 6397 reveal the most distant star clusters ever seen. Francis Reddy January 10, 2007 W hile exploring deep Hubble Space Telescope images of a globular star cluster called NGC 6397, astronomers stumbled on a distant background galaxy harboring hundreds of similar clusters. Each is so distant, it appears only as a faint point of light, even to Hubble's keen eye. ...

... Ultraluminous X-ray sources (ULXs) are located in external galaxies, their X-ray luminosities (10 39 - 10 41 erg/s) are thousand times greater than those of brightest black holes in the Galaxy. ULXs may be supercritical accretion disks around black holes of stellar masses (~10 Solar masses) like that in SS433, or they may be a hypothetical intermediate-mass black holes (hundreds - thousands Solar masses) with standard accretion disks. ... 2) The ULX progenitors were ejected from the star clusters. ...

... The colors indicate the relative motions of galaxies with accurately measured distances, with shades of green and blue indicating motions toward us and shades of yellow to red indicating motions away from us. Our nearest neighbors have only small relative motions (represented by yellows and greens), as seen best in the exploded view of the right panel. We, along with all these nearest neighbors, are moving together toward the lower right corner of the figures. ...

Stars move around galaxies as if pulled by ten times the matter that we can see. ... GRAVITATIONAL LENSING: Since dark matter by definition cannot be directly observed, several recent searches have instead exploited the predicted gravitational effects of its mass on the observed light from nearby stars. ...
