| NGC 6338 Group Merger |
 |
|
Two groups of galaxies are slamming into one another at a speed of about 4 million miles per hour in this combined X-ray (Chandra) and optical (APO) image. The colliding groups will eventually merge and form a single cluster of galaxies; these are the largest objects in the Universe. |
