TL;DR Summary

The Hubble Space Telescope has captured an image of Abell 3192, a massive galaxy cluster conglomerate that was believed to be a single cluster but is actually two separate galaxy clusters located at different distances from Earth. The foreground cluster is about 2.3 billion light-years away, while the further group is roughly 5.4 billion light-years away. The image shows smaller galaxies distorted into long, warped arcs around the cluster's edges due to gravitational lensing.
