Euclid Space Telescope finds unusual Einstein Ring around close galaxy.
Reading
A space telescope named Euclid found a bright ring of light around a nearby galaxy. This ring is called an Einstein ring and it is very rare.
The galaxy with the ring is 590 million light-years away from Earth, which is close in space terms. A light-year is a very long distance, about 5.8 trillion miles.
The ring is made by light from a very faraway galaxy bending around a closer galaxy. This bending of light is caused by gravity and is called gravitational lensing.
Albert Einstein was the scientist who first described how gravity can bend light. That is why the ring is named after him.
This Einstein ring is special because it is so close to Earth and looks beautiful. Scientists are excited to study it to learn more about the universe.
