Galaxy cluster in the constellation Draco

CL1358+62 Hubble Space Telescope image of CL1358+62 CL1358+62G1 is shown in the white rectangle. Observation data (Epoch J2000) Constellation Draco Right ascension 13h 59m 54.3s[1] Declination +62° 30′ 36″[1] Brightest member SDSS J135950.57+623105.1[2] Redshift 0.329[1] Other designations ClG 1358+62, 1E 1358.1+6245, 2E 3157, MCS J1359.8+6231, RXC J1359.8+6231, 1RXS J135949.1+623114, ZwCl 6429[1]

**CL 1358+62** (**ClG 1358+62**) is a galaxy cluster located at z=0.33 [redshift](/source/Redshift). Behind the cluster (which itself lies at a distance of about 3.9 billion light years), lensed into a red arc is an infant [galaxy](/source/Galaxy) ([CL 1358+62 G1](https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=CL_1358%2B62_G1&action=edit&redlink=1)) that was the farthest object in the [observable universe](/source/Observable_universe) for a few months. It had a record redshift of z=4.92 and was discovered on July 31, 1997 by M. Franx and G. Illingsworth. It is located approximately 26 billion [light years](/source/Light_year) from [Earth](/source/Earth). Its redshift was measured by the [Keck Telescope](/source/Keck_Telescope) shortly after its discovery. Along with G1, another galaxy also lensed, was found to be at z=4.92 ([CL 1348+62 G2](https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=CL_1348%2B62_G2&action=edit&redlink=1)).[3] The pair of galaxies were the first things other than [quasars](/source/Quasar) to have the title of most distant object found, since the 1960s.[4] The pair of galaxies remained the most distant objects known until the discovery of [RD1](/source/RD1) at z=5.34,[5] the first object to exceed [redshift](/source/Redshift) 5.
