Remember that amazing episode of Futurama where Fry asks the ‘What if’ machine what would happen if real life was more like video games? Classic stuff. Immediately earth is invaded by real-life Space Invaders and it’s hilarious. But… what NASA’s Hubble Telescope looked deep into the stars and found an actual thing that looked like a Space Invader — would you be laughing then?
Incredibly, that has just sorta happened. NASA has found a cluster of galaxies that, as a result of some strange light bending gravitational pulls, actually looks a lot like a Space Invader. It isn’t of course, it’s a trick of light, but it looks pretty cool!
