A space mission to map the Dark Universe

À propos

The Euclid Consortium is an organisation that brings together more than 2000 researchers across theoretical physics, particle physics, astrophysics and space astronomy, alongside engineers, technicians, and management and administrative staff. Consortium members work in public research laboratories or universities and together contribute to the future success of the European Space Agency (ESA) Euclid mission. Euclid is a medium-class ESA mission designed to map the universe and to better understand its unknown components, dark energy and dark matter, and its eventual fate. Scheduled for launch on July 1st, 2023 aboard a Falcon 9 rocket (SpaceX), within a month Euclid will join ESAs GAIA satellite and NASA's JWST at Lagrange point L2. From there it will survey 15,000 deg², around one third of the entire sky, over the course of its 6-year mission.
