  Nice arc of a different sort of light. The galaxy itself is not the regular elliptical, either. Can the white light on the right be another ark?

  I can see why you say it, but the Illustris project doesn't have lenses The simulated galaxies are pasted on a randomly selected background, and are unable to affect the light of the background galaxies, because the simulated galaxies aren't really there.
