NASA Wants to Turn the Sun Into a Giant Telescope
To capture unprecedented, high-resolution images of distant exoplanets, NASA is actively developing a mind-bending mission that uses the Sun’s massive gravitational field as a giant magnifying glass. This revolutionary concept relies on Albert Einstein’s theory of general relativity, where our star's immense gravity bends and focuses light from alien worlds located up to 100 light-years away.Credit:
