This image of SDSS J0952+3434 is made up of observations from Hubbles Wide Field
Camera 3 (WFC3) in the infrared and optical parts of the spectrum. Four filters were used
to sample various wavelengths. The color results from assigning different hues to each mono-
chromatic image associated with an individual filter. Image credit: NASA / ESA / Hubble /

A light source passes behind a gravitational lens (point mass placed in the center of
the image). The aqua circle is the light source as it would be seen if there was no lens,
white spots are the multiple images (or Einstein ring) of the source.--wikipedia

And all of these distant galaxies are going to disappear over the horizon some day. I wonder if future civilizations will accuse us of photoshopping these images.
