Klemola 44. This is a distant cluster of galaxies some 400 million light years away. It is rich in elliptical galaxies but there are few spirals. The central galaxy NGC 5358 is a very extended object and is of the cD type. Some theories predict that such galaxies are 'cannibals' and they 'gobble up' other smaller galaxies who happen to come too near
