The tail extends thousands of times the distance between the Sun and its nearest star.
, NASA highlighted two images from the region of space. The image on the left shows an X-ray view of the Coma galaxy cluster, captured by the European Space Agency's XMN-Newton and combined with optical data from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey. The inset in the left image shows the Galaxy group, which is also highlighted in closer detail in the Chandra observation on the right.NASA explains that the tail is a massive 1.5 million light-years long.
Right now, the gas from the galaxy group's tail is burning particularly bright, giving astronomers a great opportunity to study it in more detail. Once the gas mixes in more with that of the cluster, it will become too faint to study, NASA wrote in its post. Ultimately, the galaxy group and its enormous tail will merge and become part of the Coma Cluster.
