We have now found dozens of Einstein rings, and one of the more beautiful examples was recently found by JWST, as seen in the image above. The close galaxy in the foreground is an elliptical ...

This NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope image offers us the chance to see a distant galaxy now some 19.5 billion light-years ...

This Hubble Space Telescope image features a remote galaxy, which appears as a red arc that partially encircles a foreground ...

It's two galaxies, many billions of light-years apart, combined into one by a rare cosmic phenomenon called an Einstein ring. It's an optical illusion. Published recently as the James Webb Space ...

“An Einstein ring is an example of strong gravitational lensing. “All strong lenses are special, because they’re so rare, and they’re incredibly useful scientifically. “This one is ...

"An Einstein ring is an example of strong gravitational lensing," said Conor O'Riordan of Germany's Max Planck Institute for Astrophysics, lead author of the paper describing the discovery ...

This newly discovered Einstein ring was formed when light from a distant galaxy, located 4.42 billion light-years away, was bent and magnified by the gravity of the foreground galaxy, NGC 6505 ...

Einstein rings are examples of strong gravitational lensing, O’Riordan said, a phenomenon that acts like a magnifying glass in the universe, revealing celestial objects and light from distant ...

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 ...

Einstein rings and other gravitationally lensed objects can help reveal hidden information about distant objects. For example ...
