Euclid space telescope sent some images back to Earth during an early testing phase. While reviewing the pictures, astronomer ...

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. (AP) — Europe’s Euclid space telescope has detected a rare halo of bright light around a nearby galaxy, ...

They are one of the best examples we have of gravitational lensing–a phenomenon that Albert Einstein predicted in 1915. The ring and other findings are detailed in a study published February 10 ...

The rarely observed rings are named for mathematician and physicist Albert Einstein. His general theory of relativity predicted that light could bend and brighten around objects across the cosmos.

"They're so rare, and they're incredibly useful scientifically," said Conor O'Riordan of the Max Planck Institute for Astrophysics.

Solving it involves testing the fundamental laws of physics, including Albert Einstein's ... Nov. 7, 2024 — Researchers have developed an innovative technique to search for black hole light echoes.

Euclid, the European Space Agency's dark Universe detective, has made an astonishing discovery -- right in our cosmic backyard.

Euclid, a space telescope on a mission to uncover the secrets of dark matter and dark energy, has already made a stunning ...

Gravity distorted the light from this more distant galaxy, thus the name honoring Albert Einstein. The process is known as gravitational lensing. This photo provided by the European Space Agency ...

Albert Einstein’s general theory of relativity predicts that light will bend around objects in space, so that they focus the light like a giant lens. This gravitational lensing effect is bigger ...
