How to talk about relativity ?With a smile !
galaxies SDSSCGB 8842.3 and SDSSCGB 8842.4, strong gravitational lensing and Einstein ring. Reprocessed data from the Hubble Space Telescope

idea 1Gravity can be seen as a property of the space time geometry instead of a force
Mehdi Bozzo-Rey: [email protected]
2 particles, no acceleration / force, parallel / straight trajectories.
2 particles + force (like gravitation) : massive structure at convergence point. Curved instead of straight trajectory
2 particles start in parallel but converge even if they are following the straightest path because the space is curved

idea 2If a structure is massive and compact enough it can curve the space time so the light emitted from a source can reach the observer using 2 different paths

If the source, the lens and the observer are all aligned then what is called an Einstein ring can be observed.

How to fix it ?download the single exposures files: no luck
download the datasets from MAST: no luck
download individual files from MAST: no luck ...

processing strategy use the WFPC2 images only Align the WFPC2 images combine the 3 images as RGB image:
Red: F814W Green: F606W Blue: F450W
standard processing
Option 2: use the WFC3 sub with F360W filter as luminance to create a LRGB picture
