Gravitational Lensing: Enabling Views of Cosmic Wildflowers, European Southern Observatory Explains
SPACE reports that the European Southern Observatory officials have explained what are the effects of the gravitational lensing.
According to the European Southern Observatory’s statements, the effects of the gravitational lensing allow us to see the distant background of the space objects. As a result, the images of the distant galaxy captured by the European Southern Observatory are distorted and magnified.
As a result, the European Southern Observatory stated that the recent photo split the light from the background galaxy into four smudges of light, creating a breathtaking view of a cosmic wildflower.
