Webb Space Telescope captures 'Jewelled ring' quasar

The James Webb Space Telescope captured RX J1131-1231, a quasar six billion light-years away, gravitationally lensed by a foreground galaxy. The black hole is spinning at over half the speed of light, suggesting growth through mergers. This observation aids in understanding black hole feeding habits and dark matter distribution. Einstein's gravitational lensing theory is exemplified in this discovery. The article highlights the telescope's significant findings in deep space observation.
