A space telescope that uses a star’s gravity to bend the light
Not sure if this is possible but it would be amazing to use the warping of space-time to discover far off stars, planets and even aliens

Gravitational lensing could be the way forward, now that we know most of the universe isn’t visible to us, yet.
“In this video we explore a design for what would be the largest telescope humanity will ever use. It would allow us to take images of an exoplanet from over 100 light years away at better resolution than hubble is able to see mars from earth. The proposed FOCAL spacecraft uses a weird property of space called gravitational lensing to bend light around the sun as if it was a giant lens.”
Could also work by bending light around a black hole Instead of a star, maybe?
Great idea that others are working on
