CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. — Scientists on Tuesday unveiled the first pictures taken by the European space telescope Euclid, a shimmering and stunning collection of galaxies too numerous to count.
Although these celestial landscapes have been observed before by the Hubble Space Telescope and others, Euclid's snapshots provide"razor-sharp astronomical images across such a large patch of the sky, and looking so far into the distant universe," the agency said. “Dazzling," said the space agency’s science director, Carole Mundell, as she showed off the galaxy cluster shot on a large screen at the control center in Germany.Euclid's instruments are sensitive enough to pick up the smallest galaxies, which were too faint to see until now. The results are “crystal-clear and stunning images going back in cosmic time," Mundell said.
Euclid also took fresh photos of the Horsehead Nebula in the constellation Orion, a dramatic nursery of baby stars made famous by Hubble.
