Galaxy Collisions Found to Activate Supermassive Black Holes, Euclid Data Shows
Astronomers using ESA’s Euclid telescope and AI analysis have found that merging galaxies are significantly more likely to host active supermassive black holes. The gravitational chaos of a collision drives gas toward the galactic core, igniting AGN activity. This discovery strengthens the link between galaxy interactions and the energetic proces...

ESA’s Euclid Telescope Charts Over a Million Galaxies in Landmark First Data
ESA’s Euclid space telescope has captured about 1.2 million galaxies in its first year, providing one of the most detailed wide-field surveys of the universe ever made. Covering distances up to 10 billion light-years, Euclid’s clear, expansive imaging is helping astronomers study galaxy shapes, mergers, dwarf galaxy populations, and the role of...

ESA’s Euclid Telescope Releases First Data, Mapping 26 Million Galaxies
ESA’s Euclid telescope has released its first dataset, mapping 26 million galaxies within a week. The observations include deep-field images, a survey of 380,000 galaxies, and 500 new gravitational lens candidates. Scientists will continue tracking cosmic evolution over six years. The dataset, currently 35 terabytes, is expected to grow to 2 peta...

Weak Gravitational Lensing Examines Universe’s Structure: What You Need to Know
The universe's large-scale uniformity is under scrutiny through weak gravitational lensing. Researchers are analysing data from the Euclid Space Telescope to detect potential anisotropies in cosmic expansion. If confirmed, these findings could challenge the fundamental Cosmological Principle, which assumes the universe has no preferred direction. T...

Euclid Space Telescope Discovers Rare Einstein Ring, Revealing Dark Matter Secrets
The Euclid space telescope has detected a rare Einstein ring around galaxy NGC 6505, located approximately 590 million light-years from Earth. This phenomenon, resulting from gravitational lensing, allows scientists to study the distribution of dark matter within the lensing galaxy. The discovery aligns with Euclid's mission to map cosmic structure...

Rare 'Einstein Ring' In Earth's Backyard Captured By Euclid Telescope
The ring is made up of light coming from another galaxy almost 4.42 billion light years away and what we see from Earth is distorted by gravity.

Euclid Space Telescope Unveils First Images of Its Cosmic Atlas
The first stunning images from the European Space Agency's Euclid telescope reveal a mosaic of over 14 million galaxies, marking just 1% of its cosmic atlas. Captured over two weeks, this vast collection aims to enhance our understanding of dark matter and dark energy, contributing to the largest and most accurate map of the universe yet. The teles...
