NASA's James Webb Space Telescope has captured an almost excellent Einstein ring placed some 12 billion light-years away. Such rings were considered to be the results of the gravitational lensing phenomena. The lensing happens when the gravitational field from a huge object which wraps space and deflects light from the distinct galaxy behind it. A colorized image of the ring has been shared which was captured by the world's biggest and most powerful space science telescope. The galaxy would involve in its formation which could be referred as SPT-S J041839-4751.8.

HIGHLIGHTS
A colorized image of the ring which was captured by the telescope was shared 
The rings were formed when two galaxies were nearly aligned with one another
The pictures were aligned and colorized by the use of a method called Astropy

In order to create the image, someone has processed the information which was captured by Webb's Mid-Infrared Instrument (MIRI) camera when it was downloading it from the Mikulski Archive for Space Telescopes (MAST). The rings were formed when the two galaxies were nearly aligned with one another.

The image of the Einstein ring has totally different filters that would result in the colors we tend to see. Red was that the F1000W filter that would capture the wavelengths of sunlight at 10µm whereas green color was because of the F770W filter that would pick up 7.7µm wavelength. Meanwhile, Blue color was the F560W filter that would capture the 5.6µm wavelengths.

The person had aligned and colorized the pictures with the use of a method called Astropy and later processed them. Well, the galaxy would have never been visible without the gravitational lensing phenomenon.

The person has explained that one would simply observe the gravitational lensing impact at home with the use of a wine glass. He had even explained that the stem and the base of the wine glass have optical properties which were almost same to that of a huge gravitational lens. Hence, the zooming impact may be observed by the use of the glass.
