Why is this galaxy all alone? It absorbed all its neighbors - study
Quasar galaxy 3C 297 is all alone in space, but from what we know, it should be within a galaxy cluster. How did this happen? It seemingly ate all of them.
This image taken with the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope shows the galaxy 3C 297, which was part of a large survey of galaxies. The galaxies in the pictures look close on a 2D image, but in reality they're in completely different parts of space.(photo credit: NASA, ESA, M. Chiaberge (STScI))ByAARON REICH
