Breakthrough in Dark Matter Research? — See the First Large-Scale Data from "Euclid"
On November 12, the first large set of data from the Euclid space telescope was published. It recorded the light of more than a billion objects in a patch of sky equal in size to 9,500 full Moon discs. This material will form the basis of one of the largest three-dimensional maps of the cosmos. It will allow scientists to make important new discoveries about the nature of dark energy and dark matter. See also: What are dark matter and dark energy?
