US EditionEuclid Telescope Releases First Data, Mapping 26 Million Galaxies
- The European Space Agency has released images from the Euclid space telescope, revealing 26 million galaxies, some up to 10.5 billion light-years away.
- This data represents only 0.4% of what Euclid will capture in its six-year mission, aiming to create a detailed 3D map of the cosmos.
- Euclid has discovered over 500 galaxies exhibiting strong gravitational lensing, more than double the number previously known, which helps in understanding dark matter and dark energy.
- Experts state that these findings are just the beginning, with Euclid expected to yield significant insights into cosmic structures and the formation of the universe.
