The James Webb Space Telescope has captured stunning images of eight galaxies warped by gravitational lensing, a phenomenon where massive objects bend light from distant sources. This cosmic magnifying glass effect distorts faraway galaxies into arcs, rings, and even perfect circles, such as the recently discovered COSJ100024+015334. Gravitational lensing allows astronomers to observe previously invisible galaxies, measure mass including dark matter, and study the early universe's formation processes with unprecedented clarity.
