Gravitational lensing forms Einstein ring around foreground galaxy
A foreground galaxy acts as a gravity lens, distorting a distant background object into a near perfect Einstein ring. The central bright spot is the nearer galaxy, the lens, while the ring showcases the mass of the foreground galaxy bending light from the background source.
Giant cosmic bull’s eye rings space time in Einstein forecast
The British discovery of a complete gravitational lens ring around a distant galaxy, seen by Hubble and the Merlin radio array, showcases Einstein's general relativity. Scientists describe it as a monumental lens spanning hundreds to thousands of light years, a feat surpassing prior lens shapes.

Condors Return to Big Sur After Careful Reintroduction
Biologists led by Ventana Wilderness Sanctuary report California condors showing wild behavior in Big Sur after captive breeding and release efforts. Four chicks released in January 1997 followed by a second batch aim to establish foraging independence and social dynamics with adult supervision.
