Scientists believe the cloud was ejected from one of the cluster's galaxies. What most onlookers find surprising is that the cloud has remained intact throughout the years rather than dispersing. The “orphan cloud,” also known as the Leo Cluster, was found in Abell 1367. The cloud was seen with the VLT/MUSE Multi Unit Spectroscopic Explorer (VLT/MUSE) and Subaru, Japan's flagship optical telescope.
