Nice find! Already in literature - very cool. There are a bunch of things in this area to see including 3 supernovae as well as tons of lensing! There is also a blazar (AGN with a relativistic jet point towards us that look much brighter due to this). Very nice area!

Hubble has taken this picture of it! It looks like there’s two jellyfish galaxies with it! This galaxy cluster has everything!

Wow! There’s even a 3rd just above the centre of lensing (though likely interacting). Amazing area!
The orange lens(?) just above the central galaxy has a weird orientation for a lens doesn’t it?
Not an arc centered on the centre of the lensing mass
Cluster lenses can have way weirder lensed shapes because of all the substructure
Yeah I’ve seen some twitter examples lately,IIRC from JWST images, but not like this, to me it looks like it’s turned 90 degrees fromwhat it ‘should be’
But indeed probably due to cluster substructures, or some missing mass we’re not seeing
Oh, I didn’t see that one arc that’s coming radially out from the central galaxy – that’s indeed weird!!
Nice; the lensed galaxies are distinctly apparent in unWISE W1/W2
My brain can’t compute how this would work
Crazy, it’s the same galaxy lensed multiple times including a multiply lensed supernova including predicted new instances of that same supernova for the future.
Also the radially lensed galaxy image seems to go all the way to the center of the central cluster galaxy
That’s a very cool one.
