The team seem to be so carried away with their 1.5 trillion orphan stars they are ignoring the elephant in the room. "they saw that orphan stars orbited a point between the cluster's two brightest galaxies, NGC 1275 and NGC 1272". They have to orbit something. what is it? If they are just disturbed paths they are not orbits.

They are probably orbiting the milky way. A massive black hole is at the galaxy's center (Sagittarius A). I mean they still have the speed to keep going.
