Gravitational lensing occurs when a massive object ... To find such rare phenomena hiding amidst Euclid’s images, the European Space Agency (ESA) enlisted the help of thousands of volunteers ...

A major realization of Einstein’s general relativity is the fact that massive objects warp space-time in a way that is similar to a lens, magnifying and shifting the light of background objects.

The James Webb «Space Telescope» took a picture of a gravitational lens with a very unusual shape that creates the effect of an Einstein ring. The European Space Agency (ESA) has named this lens the ...
