Astronomers Discover Extremely Rare Einstein Ring in Early Euclid Telescope Data, Revealing Warped Space-Time
Euclid space telescope sent some images back to Earth during an early testing phase. While reviewing the pictures, astronomer and Euclid archive scientist Bruno Altieri found something incredibly rare: an Einstein ring circling a galaxy.
Euclid 'dark universe' telescope discovers stunning Einstein ring in warped space-time (image)
The "dark universe detective" space telescope Euclid has discovered its first Einstein ring in the process, learning about dark matter at the heart of a distant galaxy.
Euclid discovers a stunning Einstein ring
Euclid blasted off on its six-year mission to explore the dark universe on 1 July 2023. Before the spacecraft could begin its survey, the team of scientists and engineers on Earth had to make sure everything was working properly.
ESA’s space telescope Euclid discovers ‘astonishing' Einstein ring
The European Space Agency's Euclid space telescope was going through preliminary tests in September 2023 when it captured images of an Einstein Ring in a nearby galaxy.
ESA's Euclid Telescope Discovers Stunning Einstein Ring Hiding In Plain Sight
The European Space Agency (ESA), announced on Monday, that the Euclid telescope has discovered an Einstein ring 'hiding in plain sight' in a nearby galaxy. This galaxy named NGC 6505 is approximately 590 million light-years away from Earth, and it has been confirmed to be housing the perfect Einstein ring.
Space Telescope Spots Rare 'Einstein Ring' of Light Around Galaxy in Our Cosmic Neighborhood
Europe’s Euclid space telescope has detected a rare halo of bright light around a nearby galaxy, astronomers reported Monday. The halo, known as an Einstein ring, encircles a galaxy 590 million light-years away,
Euclid telescope discovers rare Einstein ring around nearby galaxy NGC 6505
Gravitational lensing occurs when the gravity of a massive object, like a galaxy, warps the fabric of spacetime, bending the light from a more distant background object.
