This clear image of Messier 82 (M82) shows its glowing clouds and gas plumes. Stars in this galaxy form ten times faster than in the Milky Way. This NASA/ESA Hubble image shows the edge-on disk galaxy ...
Euclid's early findings include a stunning Einstein ring in NGC 6505, showcasing its capability to enhance our understanding ...
A close-up view of the centre 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 ...
Euclid, a space telescope on a mission to uncover the secrets of dark matter and dark energy, has already made a stunning discovery: a perfectly formed Einstein ring hidden in a well-known galaxy.
Caldwell 71, or NGC 2477, is an open star cluster. Open clusters are loosely bound collections of stars. It is located roughly 4,000 light-years from Earth in the constellation Puppis.
The ring of light surrounding the centre of the galaxy NGC 6505, captured by ESA’s Euclid telescope, is a stunning example of an Einstein ring. NGC 6505 is acting as a gravitational lens, bending ...
"They're so rare, and they're incredibly useful scientifically," said Conor O'Riordan of the Max Planck Institute for Astrophysics.
The Einstein ring was found surrounding the galaxy NGC 6505, located a relatively close 590 million light-years from Earth.
It is a cosmic phenomenon that elegantly showcases the warping of space-time, a consequence of gravity predicted over a ...
