‘The Hubble Telescope has stared into the abyss, and the abyss has stared back in the form of a smiling face in space found during a search for new galaxies and stars.’

‘In an image posted to NASA's website, two yellow lights can be seen above an arc of light, painting a smiley face in the middle of a sea of stars.’

So cool!

The face's smile is caused by an arc of light bending as it passes a massive object, causing it to distort.
