Early Christmas Gift

An abundance of new science enabling scientists to hunt for rogue planets, use lensed galaxies to study matter, explore the evolution of our Universe and more.


Messier 78, this galaxy is one of the brightest nebulae in our sky and is a site of active star formation.


The new images are part of Euclid’s Early Release Observations, of which all data will be made public today, and are accompanied by six science papers. They come less than a year after the space telescope’s launch, and roughly six months after it returned its first full-colour images of the cosmos.
