The European Space Agency (ESA) launched the Euclid space telescope in July 2020 with the aim of investigating dark matter and energy, enabling a comprehensive mapping of the universe's large-scale structure. Consortium-led by over 1,600 members from 34 countries, Euclid comprises thousands of galaxies within its observing range. The consortium includes researchers like Prof Peter Coles from Maynooth University, and despite only having images released after a calibration phase, the data promises to revolutionize our understanding of cosmology by providing unprecedented clarity compared to ground-based telescopic observations (
