A-mazing! Galaxies are fascinating to me. I remember when we could only see a few of them and then this happened. A "background" galaxy was a rare event when I was young. A photograph would occasionally catch a small, distant galaxy when looking at a nearby example, and a few blurry clusters were known. When i first saw the Hubble deep field, i was blown away completely. You're doing a fantastic job!

This is a truly stunning and beautiful photo of lensing on an unbelievably monumental scale. I think your explanation of using spectroscopy to confirm that multiple images of a galaxy are indeed the same galaxy was brilliantly done, Chris. Many thanks, as always, for the effort and time you put into producing such excellent videos

That 30 galaxy is extremely far away but it's been magnified by what's the biggest lens you can think of and we can see stars in it and other features when normally they would be a blur.

One of the more interesting exploitations of gravitational lensing is that light takes different amounts of time to travel along the different paths, sometimes days and weeks apart because the distances are so vast. This means that if you witness a Supernova in one image of a lensed Galaxy, you know exactly where to look and when to look to observe the same supernova event from its very inception, not just after the fact.

Great stuff, Chris! Thanks for the shoutout :)

Time is fascinating. I worked the subway stations for nearly 10 years. From one end of the city to the other. Every so often I would notice the city would be saying that, "Today just flew by" or "The day was just dragging along." How can an entire city complain about the same time paradox unless it was effected by it. Maybe a time distorted bubble the earth passes through in its revolution around the sun. Maybe random waves of time distortion hitting the earth? Maybe they're randomly given off by the sun. Maybe they're from outside our Terran system and reach us in intervals. ???? Ti-i-i-ime, is on my side. Yes, it is!

Neils Bohr was arguing with Einstein about a rewriting of the laws of physics. "It is wrong to think the task of physics is to find out how nature is," Bohr stated. Einstein angrily disagreed, slamming Bohr famously by stating: "Deine Mutter ist so massig, ich kann die Leute hinter ihr stehen sehen." (Your mother is so massive, I can see the people standing behind her.) This led to his work on the theory of gravitational lensing.

Great stuff!

This is not exclusively support for General theory. A medium for light is still there, and it was always possible for lots of mass to affect a shape for light to transition through. Don't forget that in all of the support for Special theory, you actually see light not being constant. It is only after you "transform" all of the numbers around light velocity and pretend that light velocity didn't change that the theory works (ignoring what you saw). You may be "transforming" the wrong numbers.

My idea so I get to name it! Voyager 1 is now in interstellar time or "Mikey's Time." "V-ger's" message has sped up now that it's outside our suns time bubble or, "Terran Time." It will be faster still when "V-ger" sends a message from beyond the Milky Way's time bubble. (That name is still up for grabs.) Then there's Outside the Local Group time bubble, so on and so on until we get to the, "True Interstellar Time Standard." Now that "V-ger" is in interstellar space, it's also in the Milky Way's STANDARD, faster moving, interstellar time or "Mikey's Time." This can be proven by turning off everything except its clock and transmitter. Have "V-ger" read time for as long as possible. They WILL show the flow of time speeds up the further away you get from any celestial bodies. Until you reach the Milky Way's time standard or "Mikey's Time." •Our sun's time bubble: "Terran Time" we know and have measured. •Milky Way's time bubble or "Mikey's Time." The rate/flow of TIME outside any influence but within the Milky Way: We just got there and are still figuring. Wild guess I'd say time will increase in speed, now and until V-ger is outside the Ort cloud .007-.07% faster, maybe. Just for reference. •Local Group's time bubble or the rate/flow of time outside of any influence but within the Local Group: Name still open and unknown. Wild guess .08% to a couple seconds faster, maybe. Used just for reference. •Outside any influence in the, "True Interstellar Time Standard," or...;-P Name NOT up for grabs BUT just begging to be measured. The rate/flow of time is fastest here. (Time flows fastest here so it's best to have your motor boat.) ;-P A minute is a minute in all. It's the rate/flow I'm talking about. The Milky Way's Interstellar Time Standard will be known as, "Mikey's Time." Pass it on, please and thank you.

So, your saying that what we are seeing with the JWST telescope is that there are actually less objects in space than what we thought there were? And those huge galaxies seen at the edge of the universe might actually be smaller galaxies as were expected to be seen due to the lensing effect?

When an object is very far away the light is red shifted into the infrared so that it becomes invisible for Hubble and its visible light optics and cameras. That's why they went for infrared imaging with JWST. You can see different objects.

Galaxies are always in motion along with the telescope.. along with the light.. along with space expansion.. is this accounted for.. or are we just looking.. not to mention spacial focusing and stretching.. like points of light snaking it's way towards use.. twisted and knotted.. never hurts to look I guess.. is what I'm sure normal ppl say..

First look for me.... W O W.

with lensing causing galaxies to appear several times in our view, does this mean there are fewer galaxies than we think we see?

There are about 200 billion galaxies in the observable universe. Or so we think. Needless to say no one has actually counted them, it is an estimate. But I'm sure the people smart enough to do these calculations are smart enough to take gravitational lensing into account. Only 9 galaxies (if I remember correctly) are possible to see with the naked eye, and none of those are affected by gravitational lensing from our point of view.

So why cant we use supercomputers and AI and all that to reverse model what and where dark-matter is or its shape

Why is the lensing affect happening so far away from the unseen central source of the gravity. Why are objects that appear to be closer than the limits of the affected light not already affected but the gravity source. I see the lensing but this looks like standard diffraction. Easy explained by a strong gravity source creating a globular particle field (visible in frame) over a wide area of space.

Man I`m not some crazy kook and I`m a very analytical person but I just think that what ever is at play to cause the Lensing isn`t Dark matter or what they call dark or the cause of Multiple galaxy clusters. I think "and please help me understand if I sound crazy" that our universe is like the opposite of water or matter and bubble like structures form from al the stuff happening like stars forming etc and the bubbles are causing distortions and it is throwing off all measurements making everything seem crazier than it is. What if the lensing is from an inactive black hole thats closer to us causing it? Can we rule out all variables and say 100% for sure that what the scientist say is happening is happening? I just want to learn more and Find out exactly how we come up with this stuff? what if its imperfections in the mirror at the quantum level? Just wondering I guess. good video

How about this? Dark Energy is EQUAL to Energy plus TIME, for our purposes here, "HEAVY TIME." Mira, look, if we look at any form of energy or whatever you want to call it. We see this electron orbit however many times a minute. We set that as our base or 0 reading, right? For our plain of existence, anyway. However, in this pocket of "heavy time" we get readings of a billion times a minute because time is HEAVY here and passes faster. Or, energy where there shouldn't be energy / dark energy / Heavy Time. See, in that same minute that electron aged a million times faster and therefore has given off readings of a million instead of our base readings. Dark energy IS "HEAVY TIME." It's the difference in TIME that we're seeing! Maybe. The light from these galaxies have been aged by going through pockets of dark energy or "heavy time." Numbers used for reference only. TI-I-I-IME IS ON MY SIDE! YES, IT IS! Now we look at the other side of the coin, dark matter. Pockets of dark matter are actually pockets of "LIGHT TIME." Mira, look, if heavy time is, "full," it stands to reason, light time would be "starving," right? Now this light time is slower. Making our base 0 electron seem to stand still. Get a pocket full of seemingly motionless nothing and you get a pocket of starving dark matter. In this case "starving" is the same as creating a vacuum in space. Since this pocket of "Light time" is "starving" and everything outside this pocket of dark matter is in a "heavier time," it makes it appear dark matter is attracting when really it's just a vacuum, in time, trying to equalize. Making it stand to reason, by my, "I'm not smart enough to give anything more than this simplified reasoning, that Dark Matter is "LIGHT TIME" and Dark Energy is "HEAVY TIME." Maybe. Now think about this. As light travels through the universe and passes through these pockets of Heavy Time or Light Time. Does that "age" or "distort" that particular beam of light? Does that beam of light that is say 40 million light years away now look like it's 100 million light years away? If I'm right, it would explain why these 6 "old" galaxies are being discovered. Also if I'm right and someone proves it, you must name it after me and give me a cut of the Nobel prize winnings. Pass it on please. and thank you. Don't worry, where I come from crazy is a compliment. As it should be P.S. I may have gotten the names backwards and thanks again ;-P

Those 30.x galaxies are mirrored or inverted, and a central point source magnifier is not so convincing to me. This is all just another bandwagon I'd get kicked off of for questioning.

The rate of time and measures of distance outside of galaxies isn’t the same as our measurements inside of the Milky Way galaxy. *Solution to the "Time Light Problem"* The reason why people often stumble over the *assumption* that light years in outer space equals the same measure of distance and passage of time on earth is because general relativity is not being taken into account. In general relativity, the local rate of time and the measure of distance depend on the amount of matter or mass in the vicinity. Locally, the rate of time and measure of distance doesn't change much. However, the distance in our line of sight between us and distant galaxies is extreme and mostly running at a much faster rate of time as well as an expanded measure of distance compared to where we are near Sagittarius A's Milky Way black hole (where our rate of time is much slower and our measure of distance is much more contracted). The same way the earth appears flat locally, our universe also appears to be flat locally. However, over great distances throughout the universe there are differing measures of distance and differing rates of time from black holes to the lagrange points between black holes where there is very little acceleration compared to our relatively flat contracted local frames of reference near Sagittarius A. When we observe other galaxies, we are effectively looking at vastly differing measures of time and distance relative to our local observations within the gravitational force of the mass of the Milky Way galaxy. This can lead to various observed phenomena as we look into outer space such as redshift, superluminal motion and the apparent faster motion of the outer spiral arms of galaxies. It's not the same as our flat observations of cats and dogs locally here on earth where we don't observe differing measures of distance and time. So the supposed expansion of the universe, imaginary inflatons, invisible dark matter and dark energy or vacuum energy are *not* required to explain the observed redshift of light from distant galaxies or the faster than expected motion of the outer spiral arms of galaxies. As predicted by general relativity, the expanded space between galaxies due to the absence of matter in our line of sight where much less acceleration can explain the observed redshift without the need for a nonsensical universe expanding into oblivion for no apparent reason and it explains the faster than expected motion of structures and objects the farther it is from supermassive black holes. It turns out that the vacuum energy of space is due to the frame dragging of black holes that are growing from gobbling up spacetime regardless of the amount of matter being consumed. Recent findings of a team of scientists have found that dark energy or vacuum energy is associated with supermassive black holes that are growing in size. Supermassive black holes are the most powerful forces in the universe with far reaching effects of gravity and vacuum energy. The problem and solution is that between galaxies, all of the galaxies all around are all together pulling and drawing in spacetime as well as exerting equal gravitational forces. This is the reason there is very little acceleration between galaxies and where there is expanded distance and a faster rate of time. As predicted by general relativity, the expanded space between galaxies due to the absence of matter in our line of sight where there is less acceleration explains the observed redshift without the need for a nonsensical universe expanding into oblivion for no apparent reason at all. The differing rates of time and differing measures of distance also explain *how* a day is the same as a thousand years and a thousand years is the same as a day, at the same time in the same universe. 13.8 billion years is the same as 6,000 years and 6,000 years is the same as 13.8 billion years *within the same created universe!*

Great video, but would be even better without the background music which is very distracting.

Observing the same galaxy twice is the same phenomenon as observing “sun dogs” sunlight refracted by the media around the Earth. It´s simple atmospheric knowledge and knowledge of light refraction through different media in general. I´m amazed that Einsteins speculative mental construct of "bended space time" and his “gravitational rubber sheet non science” can achieve any cosmological validity at all.

This video is wrong. Gravitational lensing is created by the 'out-flow' of gravity not the regular gravity that makes us fall to the ground. Gravity makes us fall, but it also makes trees grow.. it out-flows. Then it turns around at a distance, and comes back like a lava lamp. The point where the out-flow turns around is gravitational lensing. And I am the one that is always right when it comes to science. I am the one that said that galaxies would be big as far as we can see, and that there was no Big Bang. So I beat scientists nearly every time I say something... and that is not gravitational lensing as explained in the video, it is the out-flow of gravity turning around.
