One of the first verified predictions of general relativity is the gravitational deflection of starlight. The effect was first observed in 1919 during a total solar eclipse. Since stars appear as ...

A stunning new image from the James Webb Space Telescope reveals a cosmic mirage known as an Einstein ring, where the light ...

James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) has captured a stunning photograph of an Einstein ring. The European Space Agency (ESA) and the Canadian Space Agency (CSA) shared this unusual sighting to the public ...

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.

NASA has shared an incredible image of an 'Einstein Ring' captured by the James Webb Space Telescope. The picture features ...

Astronomers using the powerful James Webb Space Telescope to survey distant galaxies spotted an unusual, chance phenomenon ...

The rare cosmic phenomenon, called an Einstein ring, occurs when massive objects can bend light due to their gravitational influence. The post James Web Space Telescope image shows one galaxy hiding ...

This week, researchers reported on nine rivers and lakes in the Americas that defy hydrologic expectations. Geologists report ...

New Delhi: The ‘Einstein Ring,’ an extremely rare phenomenon, has been named NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope Picture of the Month. This cosmic event happens when light from a very faraway galaxy ...

This "rare cosmic phenomenon", called an Einstein ring, appears as a single eye-like orb in the darkness of space, but is actually a distorted view of two distant galaxies in the constellation Hydrus.

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