Those were beautiful #aurorae in the past days. A solar storm brought a lot of protons to Earth. Not only to Earth but also to #ESAEuclid – but does #Euclid notice? Oh yes.

Reminder: @science.esa.int is hosting a workshop "Working with #Euclid Q1: from Data Access to Science" in a hybrid format at ESAC, Madrid, Spain, and online – from 1.-3. December 2025.

This event will bring together researchers with + without prior experience using #ESAEuclid data.

Here's a cutout, this is about 1% of the full image. Young stars, dust and gas being blown out, a lot is going on. The #ESA page has in-depth explanations.

We are releasing seven new science publications today, based on our Q1 data release earlier this year. All revolve around galaxies, from dust to interactions to active centers.These are accompanied by two new image collages drawn from the same release.

The United Nations Office for Outer Space Affairs (UNOOSA) has published its 3rd edition of collected Space Law treaties and principles.

And we are honored that an #ESAEuclid image is decorating its cover:

#ESAEuclid launched two years ago. This seems both like yesterday and a long time ago:

This "Q1" data release is aimed both at the community to sharpen their tools for the 30x larger DR1 expected in late 2026, as well as to enable a first set of science projects across cosmic time.

It's #Euclid data release day!

@esa.int and the Euclid Consortium are making 63 deg² of Wide Survey data available to the world. Imaging and spectroscopy data, catalogues and masks for 20+ million galaxies, quasars, stars and substellar objects.

And as usual with #ESAEuclid, both the full scene of NGC 6505 and its environment and background are visible in the same image, as well as the Einstein Ring in the center. But you have to zoom in!

Images in our blogpost www.euclid-ec.org/einstein-rin...

and at ESA www.esa.int/Science_Expl...

The combination of #ESAEuclid's spatial resolution and sensitivity of these observations shows the central Einstein Ring in NGC 6505 so clearly that it almost looks painted. But it is being created by gravity.

A look back at #ESAEuclid in 2024, and a look forward into what to expect from #Euclid in the coming year:

#ESA has published a 'Sonification' of #ESAEuclid 's image of the Messier 78 star forming region. Sound from an image of the Universe - how does that work?

Here are explanation and sonified image: www.esa.int/ESA_Multimed...

#ESAEuclid's 1st public search project for strong gravitational lenses is now also officially live at 'Space Warps – ESA Euclid'. We're aiming at classifying 100,000 galaxies in this project.
Here's our blog post with more background:
