See it on NASA's siteThe gravity of galaxy NGC 6505, seen here, is so strong that it warps the light from a galaxy much farther away. This creates a perfect Einstein ring, a complete circle of light around the closer galaxy's center. This alignment allows astronomers to study the distant galaxy and the mass of NGC 6505.
