Euclid Telescope Spots Rare Einstein Ring'

Astronomers Discover Extremely Rare Einstein Ring in Early Euclid Telescope Data, Revealing Warped Space-Time
Euclid space telescope sent some images back to Earth during an early testing phase. While reviewing the pictures, astronomer and Euclid archive scientist Bruno Altieri found something incredibly rare: an Einstein ring circling a galaxy.
Euclid telescope discovers rare Einstein ring around nearby galaxy NGC 6505
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.
Ghost in the galaxy: Stunning Einstein ring spotted by Euclid
Einstein rings help scientists study dark matter and cosmic expansion. Euclid will find thousands more lenses to map the Universe’s structure
Euclid telescope spots a rare Einstein Ring in a nearby galaxy
The Euclid Space Telescope has captured a remarkable image showing an extremely rare phenomenon: a ring of light around the center of a galaxy, known as an Einstein Ring. These structures appear in telescope images due to the distorting effects of gravity, and they allow researchers to study distant galaxies which might otherwise be insibile.
Euclid Telescope Spots Einstein Ring Wrapped Around a Galaxy
The structure is nearly 600 million light-years from Earth and is an early display of the nascent dark matter telescope's power.
Rare 'Einstein Ring' spotted around a nearby galaxy for the first time
A Euclid space telescope has spotted a rare halo of bright light known as an "Einstein Ring" in a galaxy not so far, far away.
Space telescope spots rare ‘Einstein ring’ of light around galaxy in our cosmic neighborhood
Europe’s Euclid space telescope has detected a rare halo of bright light around a nearby galaxy. The halo, known as an Einstein ring, encircles a galaxy 590 million light-years away.
Euclid telescope spots rare 'Einstein ring' hiding near Earth — and an ancient, unnamed galaxy behind it
Einstein predicted the existence of gravitationally-warped rings of light in 1915. Now, a new one has been discovered just a cosmic stone's throw from our own planet.
