Product Description

Cosmic Heavyweights in Free-for-All Mouse Pad The most crowded collision of galaxy clusters has been identified by combining information from three different telescopes. This result gives scientists a chance to learn what happens when some of the largest objects in the universe go at each other in a cosmic free-for-all. Using data from NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory, Hubble Space Telescope and the Keck Observatory on Mauna Kea, Hawaii, astronomers were able to determine the three-dimensional geometry and motion in the system MACSJ0717.5+3745 (or MACSJ0717 for short) located about 5.4 billion light years from Earth. The researchers found that four separate galaxy clusters are involved in a triple merger, the first time such a phenomenon has been documented. Galaxy clusters are the largest objects bound by gravity in the universe. In MACSJ0717, a 13-million-light-year-long stream of galaxies, gas and dark matter -- known as a filament -- is pouring into a region already full of galaxies. Like a freeway of cars emptying into a full parking lot, this flow of galaxies has caused one collision after another.

This review is from: Beautiful Galaxy Cluster NASA Space Mouse Pad (Misc.)

As a mousepad, it is completely fine. However, the print on it is not quite as I hoped for. It seems that the black isn't really black at all, but green. It think looks like the mousepad has been lying out in the sun for a few weeks, the colors are very dull and disappointing. Too bad, because the image itself is stunning.
