Is exoplanet imaging with the solar gravitational lens feasible?
The solar gravitation lens (SGL) has much potential as a telescope. This point in space, located about 650 AU away from the sun, uses fundamental properties of physics to amplify the light from extremely far-away objects, allowing us to see them at a level of detail unachievable anywhere else. However, any SGL mission would face plenty of technical and physical challenges.
