A massive cluster of yellowish galaxies, seemingly caught in a red and blue spider web of eerily distorted background galaxies, makes for a spellbinding picture from NASA's Hubble Space Telescope. To make this image, Hubble peered straight through the center of one of the most massive galaxy clusters known, called Abell 1689.
The gravity of the cluster's stars, plus dark matter, acts as a 2-million-light-year-wide "lens" in space. This "gravitational lens" bends and magnifies the light of the galaxies located far behind it. Some of the faintest arcs in this image are background galaxies over 13 billion light-years away.
The most prominent lensing effect is the long blue arc, just above, and to the left of, centre.
The picture is an exquisite demonstration of Albert Einstein's prediction that gravity warps space and distorts beams of light. The image is a composite of visible-light and near-infrared exposures taken in June 2002.
