SA’s Euclid spacecraft arrived at Port Canaveral, Florida, on April 30 before being moved to the Astrotech facility near Cape Canaveral. The satellite is set to launch on a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket no earlier than July and will travel 1.5 million km to the Sun-Earth Lagrange point L2.
ESA’s Euclid spacecraft finished its ocean cruise safe and sound on April 30 at Port Canaveral in Florida. Subsequently, the satellite was moved by road to the Astrotech facility near Cape Canaveral. Euclid will launch on a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket, no earlier than July, before starting its 1.5 million km journey to the Sun-Earth Lagrange point L2. In orbit, Euclid will map billions of galaxies out to 10 billion light years, across more than one-third of the sky.
