The strange sight is actually two galaxies, with the light of the second warped around the one at the front as a result of ...

The Einstein ring observed by Euclid is a direct illustration of the theory of general relativity. According to Albert Einstein, light bends in the presence of massive objects, creating ...

Astronomers have identified the closest ever Einstein ring, a rare phenomenon where light from a further-off galaxy is bent by the gravity of a galaxy closer to Earth. The ring was previously ...

The "Cosmic Horseshoe" is an Einstein ring, a system made up of a foreground galaxy whose mass is so great, it warps the light from a galaxy behind it. Now, astronomers know where it gets this mass ...

Scientists have found a rare Einstein ring in “our cosmic backyard” using images from the Euclid space telescope. The discovery, published in the journal Astronomy And Astrophysics ...

An Einstein Ring was discovered by the European Space Agency's Euclid space telescope in September 2023. Space telescope finds rare 'Einstein Ring' of light in nearby galaxy A rare ring of light ...

Space rarely displays anything as near-perfect as this 'jaw-dropping' ring of light. But astronomers have found an incredibly rare complete 'Einstein ring' - predicted by Albert Einstein more than ...

The Einstein Ring already picked up by Euclid is special not only because it’s a very strong one, but also because it resides relatively close to Earth, when talking from a cosmic perspective.

Einstein rings occur when light from a distant galaxy bends to form a glowing ring around another object in the foreground as that object is being observed. The rarely observed rings are named for ...

The ring of light, known as an Einstein Ring, was discovered in September 2023 by Euclid, a space telescope on a six-year mission to map out the cosmos by observing billions of galaxies.
