A new photo taken by the James Webb Space Telescope shows a rare cosmic phenomenon called an “Einstein ring.” Einstein rings happen due to a process called “gravitational lensing,” where light from ...

James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) has captured a stunning photograph of an Einstein ring. The European Space Agency (ESA) and ...

This image of the Rings of Relativity, also known as Einstein Rings, captured by Hubble, showcases a rare phenomenon where the gravity of a massive object bends and distorts light from a distant ...

So much so that the cosmic phenomenon is called an "Einstein ring." Einstein rings happen when light from one distant object is bent around the mass of another, slightly closer and even larger object.

Astronomers using the powerful James Webb Space Telescope to survey distant galaxies spotted an unusual, chance phenomenon called an "Einstein ring." It's not an actual object, but a warped ...
