Wow.

That's one heck of a paywall. Wish I could see the images, though!

Originally saw the info on phys.org but some of the mods on this sub routinely ban posts to phys.org. Here's the news article with the images in it

Ok, so it's actually cooler than the title suggests. The gravitational lensing shows the same supernova at three points of it's life days apart - simultaneously. So three images around the galaxy at the same time, with varying degrees of brightness. Distances the light travels around the galaxy must be truly vast for such delays.

Struggled with capturing the full concepts of its coolness in a post title of reasonable length

Welcome to r/science! This is a heavily moderated subreddit in order to keep the discussion on science. However, we recognize that many people want to discuss how they feel the research relates to their own personal lives, so to give people a space to do that, personal anecdotes are now allowed as responses to this comment. Any anecdotal comments elsewhere in the discussion will continue to be removed and our normal comment rules still apply to other comments.

I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically. Please contact the moderators of this subreddit if you have any questions or concerns.
