(Zw 3146, ZwCl 1021.0+0426)
(nearby large galaxy cluster)

Zwicky 3146 (aka Zw 3146 and ZwCl 1021.0+0426) is a galaxy cluster listed in the 1962 Catalog of Galaxies and Clusters of Galaxies (CGCG), whose redshift suggests it is on the order of 1 Gpc distant. It demonstrates a strong cooling flow, an inflow due to cooling of the intracluster medium at the center of the cluster.
