- The European probe Euclid produced the largest and most detailed visible light image of the Milky Way’s center.
- More than 60 million stars, star clusters, and cosmic nebulae were captured in the bright galactic bulge region.
- The image is a composite of nine exposures combined with color data from another telescope.
- These observations may enable the detection and mass measurement of exoplanets orbiting distant stars.

- ESA launched Euclid on July 1; the mission costs 1.4 billion euros and involves four Swiss institutions.
- Over six years, Euclid is to measure positions, shapes and distances of billions of galaxies for a three-dimensional map.
- According to analyses, today’s universe consists of 70 percent dark energy, 25 percent dark matter and 5 percent visible matter.
- Using weak gravitational lensing and cosmic expansion history, Euclid is to examine dark matter and possible explanations for dark energy.
Euclid is on its way to uncover the cosmic secret of Dark Matter and Dark Energy.— ESA, via Twitter after a successful launch
