#ESAEuclid
celebrates first science with sparkling cosmic views! 🤩
The images are part of Euclid’s Early Release Observations — just 24 hours of observations, 17 targets, over 11 million objects revealed in visible light and 5 million more in infrared light.

After the successful ice decontamination procedure performed in March, a new de-icing operation is planned for June.
The de-icing operations of Euclid’s sensitive optics are expected to become a routine activity. Read more 👉
Star formation can be messy. To help find out just how messy, ESA's new Sun-orbiting Euclid telescope recently captured the most detailed image ever of the bright star forming region M78. Near the image center, M78 lies at a distance of only about 1,300 light-years away and has a
