About 25 years ago Zwicky (1957), Holmberg (1958) and Hoffmeister (1962) found intergalactic dust by observations. Zwicky (1957) explained the deficiency of distant clusters of galaxies by intergalactic dust inside the near clusters. Holmberg (1958) made extensive observations of the Virgo cluster. He found systematic differences of the colour indexes between cluster and field galaxies. Intergalactic dust inside of the Virgo cluster should be the reason of these differences. Hoffmeister (1962) found a clear deficiency of galaxies in the region of Microscopicum. Again the reason should be a large cloud of intergalactic dust.
