this group of galaxies is almost 450 million light-years away from earth- galaxy cluster Abell S0740. the view is dominated by the large elliptical galaxy at the center of the cluster; it is 100,000 light-years across, comparable in size to our own Milky Way, and contains more than 100 billion stars.
