The Einstein Ring already picked up by Euclid is special not only because it’s a very strong one, but also because it resides relatively close to Earth, when talking from a cosmic perspective.

The halo, known as an Einstein ring, encircles a galaxy 590 million light-years away, considered close by cosmic standards. A light-year is 5.8 trillion miles.

An Einstein Ring, named as a nod to Albert Einstein's theory of relativity, is light from a galaxy that bends in a way to encircle a closer object, NASA explained. A Euclid space telescope has spotted ...

A close-up view of the center of the NGC 6505 galaxy, with the bright Einstein ring around its nucleus, captured by ESA’s Euclid space telescope. The Einstein ring is formed by gravitational lensing, ...

Wednesday, February 12, 2025: The Euclid space telescope has, by chance, discovered its first Einstein ring, and it is absolutely stunning. Beyond its aesthetic appeal, this perfectly circular ...
