A group of Portuguese astronomers drew upon Cristiano Ronaldo’s influence to christen a newly discovered galaxy within our universe.
In a recent development, a team of astronomers stumbled upon a fresh cosmic wonder. Situated approximately 12.9 million light-years away from our planet, this galaxy is believed to have taken shape around 800 million years ago.
Swiftly following the revelation of this celestial marvel, the Portuguese research team decided to name it “Cosmos Redshift 7,” abbreviated as CR7, mirroring the moniker commonly associated with superstar Cristiano Ronaldo. This choice was no mere coincidence; these astronomers hail from Portugal, Ronaldo’s homeland. Their decision to honor the former Real Madrid player reflects the deep admiration he commands.
“CR7” is among the brightest objects (object groupings) that humanity has ever observed. Observatories situated in southern Europe further confirm that this newly discovered galaxy resides within an exceptionally rare cluster.
And thus, in addition to a luminous CR7 gracing the football field, we now have a CR7 shining brightly across the skies.
