Colour-graded. The red glow is the cluster's hot gas, from the Chandra X-ray picture; only the brighter gas is shown. Depth from published redshifts; distances compressed; the galaxies of Pandora's Cluster are shown at the cluster's distance. Not to scale: the stars of our own galaxy and the far background, which holds every galaxy without a catalogued distance. Where a galaxy slides aside, the sky behind it is filled with noise taken from the same image. Layered 3D visualization by Yuki AI Productions.
