Euclid telescope has discovered a rare perfect Einstein Ring in NGC 6505, a nearby galaxy only 590 million light-years away. The discovery represents an exceptionally rare astronomical alignment where light from a distant galaxy is bent into a perfect ring by NGC 6505's gravitational field. This finding provides valuable data about dark matter distribution and stellar composition in NGC 6505's central region.
