ESA's Euclid celebrates first science with sparkling cosmic views - YouTube - astrophysics

The ESA/NASA Euclid spacecraft promises a wealth of new discoveries because of its unprecedented wide field of view and optical sharpness.It can detect dark matter and dark energy because of these qualities.For example,the large amount of gravitational lensing,a curvature of spacetime,caused by the gravity of massive objects,reveals the substantial presence of dark matter.This was predicted by Einstein's General Theory of Relativity.*Brown dwarf substellar objects,which are failed stars,may account for much of the dark matter in the universe.Brown dwarfs lacked enough mass to initiate thermonuclear fusion.*Even the first five Euclid images have advanced our knowledge of the universe.

2024 Total Solar Eclipse News Conference

The Parker Solar Probe will get very close to the sun and gather data on the eclipse never possible before.A NASA WB-40 aircraft will also gatger unique data as it chases the eclpse,getting an extra two minutes of totality.Astronauts aboard the ISS will gather data from a unique perspective,seeing the shadow of the Moon on the Earth.A NOAA satellite will study the effect of the eclipse on the ionosphere.An eclipse was used to confirm Albert Einstein's General Theory of Relativity by observing gravitational lensing,the bending of starlight around the curvature of spacetime.NASA TV will provide live coverage of the eclipse from 1-4 pm EDT on 8 April 2004 and this blog intends to cover it.If you can't watch it live,you should be able to see a recorded version of it as well later on.

Hubble’s Inside The Image: Abell 2744 - NASA Goddard - astrophysics

Because of the intense gravity exerted by galaxy cluster Abell 2744,gravitational lensing,which is a curvature of space,occurs as predicted by Albert Einstein and we are able to look back in time at galaxies in the early universe about 12 billion light years away.The universe is about 13.8 billion years old.Galaxy cluster Abell 2744 also contains dark matter.

Supernova explosion 4 billion light-years away revealed using gravitational lensing - astrophysics

Gravity from massive objects such as a galaxy causes light from the original light source to bend,an effect predicted by Einstein's Theory of General Relativity.This results in a magnifying effect,revealing objects we cannot see even with a powerful telescope.In this case,the image of the original light source was in a form called Einstein's cross.
