I'd say it has to be a gravitationallens, an incredibly dense mass.
2
That we might have a gravitationallens of our very own, nearby and available.
3
Furthermore, NASA explains that the "immense gravity in Abell 2744 acts as a gravitationallens to warp space".
4
Astronomers spotted the dwarf star because it acted as a gravitationallens, focusing light from a blue background star in another galaxy.
5
This natural " gravitationallens" effect essentially magnified the distant light by nearly 10 times, making it bright enough for Spitzer and Hubble to detect.
1
All those hundreds of light years away, by some kind of gravitationallensing effect?
2
The new campaign exploits a phenomenon known as gravitationallensing.
3
The smile came from something called gravitationallensing which distorts light, according to Nasa.
4
Light traveling through the matter clump is warped and distorted, a phenomenon called gravitationallensing.
5
The technique, known as " gravitationallensing" has been used before to ferret out distant galaxies.
