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 are gravitational lenses that bend the light passing near them, and in the best cases, magnify distant objects that are too far away to observe. Recently, the James Webb Space ...

Webb Telescope captures an Einstein ring in the Hydrus constellation Light bends around a massive galaxy, forming a glowing ring Gravitational lensing helps study distant galaxies and dark matter ...

The rare cosmic phenomenon, called an Einstein ring, occurs when massive objects can bend light due to their gravitational influence. It was captured by the James Webb Space Telescope and named ...

A jaw-dropping new space image shows one galaxy hiding behind another. The rare cosmic phenomenon, called an Einstein ring, occurs when massive objects can bend light due to their gravitational ...

Light from an extremely distant spiral galaxy was bent and magnified by the gravity of a member of the galaxy cluster SMACSJ0028.2-7537 into a ring-like structure, called an Einstein ring. Einstein ...
