Euclid Space Telescope, developed by the European Space Agency (ESA) and the Euclid Consortium, was launched on 1 July 2023 from Cape Canaveral in Florida.
According to NASA, by 2030, Euclid will create a cosmic map that covers almost a third of the sky, using a field of view that is far wider than that of NASA’s Hubble and James Webb space telescopes, which will allow scientists to study dark matter with higher precision than ever before.
The mission released 5 new images which were taken shortly after Euclid’s launch as part of its early release observations program and they are astonishingly detailed.
