(Agence France-Presse Washington, 31st) The “Euclid” (Euclid) astronomical telescope launched by the European Space Agency on July 1 has entered orbit at its destination, launching a mission to explore the mysteries of dark matter and dark energy, European Space Agency The first test photos were released today. These star-studded photos were taken during the commissioning of Euclid. At this stage, Euclid is finely calibrated, so it is not yet at its full potential. But the European Space Agency said the tests showed Euclid was capable of difficult tasks. “After more than 11 years of designing and developing Euclid, it’s exciting to see the first images,” Euclid program manager Giuseppe Racca said in a statement. After emptying, the satellite left the earth regarding 1.5 million kilometers to reach its observation orbit. From there, the Euclid telescope will create the largest map of the universe ever made, covering more than a third of the sky with 2 billion galaxies. By capturing light that took 10 billion years to reach Earth’s neighborhood, the map will provide a new look at 13.8 billion years of cosmic history.The first test photos of the Euclid telescope have been exposed
