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.
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.
Rare ‘Einstein ring’ of light surrounds galaxy in our cosmic neighborhood
An Einstein ring is light from a much more distant galaxy that bends in such a way as to perfectly encircle a closer object.
Space telescope finds rare 'Einstein Ring' of light in nearby galaxy
A rare ring of light surrounding a galaxy nearly 590 million light-years away from Earth has been discovered by a space telescope that scientists hope will uncover more cosmic phenomena throughout the universe, the European Space Agency announced on Monday.
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 Spots Rare 'Einstein Ring' In Nearby Galaxy
Euclid telescope has located a rare hoop of light called an "Einstein ring" in a nearby elliptical galaxy. Though the galaxy has been on humans' radar for 140 years, its halo is new—and it has a lot to teach Euclid about the dark universe.
