Introducing the Euclid Space Telescope, a groundbreaking project designed to explore the mysteries of the universe.
The Euclid Telescope, in its early development stages, had a focus on designing and testing its state-of-the-art instruments.
Construction of the telescope began in 2022 and cost approximatley 660 million euros.
The launch of Euclid was July 1, 2023, where it was carried into space by a Soyuz rocket.

The mission is expected to last for six years, with an estimated end date in 2029.

The Euclid project is a collaboration between the European Space Agency (ESA) and multiple international partner agencies.

This ambitious project is equipped with a 1.2-meter diameter mirror and state-of-the-art cameras and spectrographs.

The Euclid Telescope is now situated at the Sun-Earth L2 point, a stable location around 1.5 million kilometers from Earth.

Euclid was planned to orbit the Sun-Earth L2 point, allowing it to gather crucial data on dark matter and dark energy.

The primary mission goals of Euclid are to study the cosmic expansion, dark energy, and the growth of large-scale structures.

In recent years, Euclid has made significant discoveries, such as mapping the distribution of cosmic dark matter with unprecedented precision.

Additionally, Euclid has provided valuable insights into the nature of dark energy, bringing us closer to understanding the fundamental forces shaping our universe.
