Through a collaborative effort between the Euclid Space Telescope, the European Space Agency (ESA), and the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), a “Einstein” ring was identified around the center of the galaxy “NGC 6505,” located 590 million light-years away from Earth. According to a news release on NASA’s website, the “Einstein” ring, named after the renowned scientist Albert Einstein who proposed the general theory of relativity predicting the bending and magnification of light around cosmic objects, was captured. Formed when light from a distant galaxy is bent to create a ring aligned with a foreground object, the Einstein ring was found surrounding the center of the galaxy “NGC 6505” at a distance of 590 million light-years. The light ring is a result of light from a galaxy located 4.42 billion light-years away from “NGC 6505” being distorted by the gravitational pull. Conor O’Riordan, the lead author of the first scientific paper analyzing the ring from the Max Planck Institute for Astrophysics, stated, “The Einstein ring is an example of strong gravitational lensing.” The Euclid Space Telescope was launched from the Cape Canaveral Space Station in Florida, USA, on July 1, 2023.
