The galaxy cluster PSZ2 G181 was recently observed by the Chandra X-Ray Observatory, revealing two separate clusters that had collided and were poised to do so again. Dr. Andra Stroe and team published an article in The Astrophysics Journal as part of a three part series describing their findings.
Join us this week as Mike explores galaxy clusters and the evolution of the universe.
