Einstein rings help scientists study dark matter and cosmic expansion. Euclid will find thousands more lenses to map the ...
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.
"They're so rare, and they're incredibly useful scientifically," said Conor O'Riordan of the Max Planck Institute for ...
The Einstein ring was found surrounding the galaxy NGC 6505, located a relatively close 590 million light-years from Earth.
A rare ring of light surrounding a galaxy nearly 590 million light-years away from Earth has been discovered by a space ...
The Euclid space telescope has captured a stunning image of an Einstein ring, a rare phenomenon caused by gravitational lensing, around galaxy NGC 6505, 590 million light-years from Earth.
A study published in the Journal of Cosmology and Astroparticle Physics (JCAP) presents a methodology to test the assumption ...
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.
Euclid, the European Space Agency’s dark Universe detective, has made an astonishing discovery – right in our cosmic backyard ...
The "dark universe detective" space telescope Euclid has discovered its first Einstein ring in the process, learning about ...
Albert Einstein himself thought that the eponymous Einstein ring would be impossible to observe, but the Euclid telescope has ...
A POWERFUL telescope floating in space has discovered an extremely rare Einstein ring of light around a nearby galaxy. The ...
