Hubble Space Telescope image of the gravitational lens system. The white objects are the multiple lensed images of the background galaxy, more than 11 billion light-years away. The orange objects are images of the three galaxies some 7 billion light-years away whose gravity is "bending" the light from the background galaxy to produce the multiple images.

Very Long Baseline Array (VLBA) radio image of the gravitational lens system. The darkest (brightest) objects are the six lensed images of the background galaxy. Other objects seen in this 1.7 GHz radio image are not part of the gravitational lens system

HST image of the gravitational lens system, with labels indicating the individual components. A, B, C, D, E and F are the lensed images of the background galaxy. G, G' and G" are the three lensing galaxies.
