...strengths of the new material is up for debate—there are certainly moments that are lost in the continuum. It’s unclear whether those more sedate tracks like “Evil,” “If” and “Sagittarius Silver Announcement”—which are transitional in the way that previous albums’ instrumental tracks were—are engaging or expendable.

At that distance, even its home star is invisible, so astronomers resorted to a sort of cosmic optical illusion, first proposed by Einstein in the 1930s, to detect it. Einstein pointed out that since massive objects bend light rays, a star could act as a sort of lens, focusing and magnifying the light of a more distant star passing behind it. In his original...
