Space telescope spots rare Einstein ring' of light

Space telescope reveals rare ‘Einstein ring’ phenomenon with startling clarity
The Einstein ring, formed as light from a distant galaxy bends to glow around another object in the foreground, could help solve the universe’s mysteries.
Space telescope spots rare 'Einstein ring' of light in nearby galaxy
A European space telescope captured a rare halo of light that circles a galaxy that is 590 million light-years away, which is close in cosmic estimates.
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.
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.
