Euclid telescope captures Milky Way's center, aiding NASA's upcoming mission

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

The European Space Agency's Euclid telescope has captured a detailed image of the Milky Way's galactic bulge, offering a valuable preview for an upcoming NASA mission. This image will complement NASA's Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope's five-year survey, set to begin this summer, which aims to map changes in stars and celestial objects within the bulge. Researchers anticipate that combining data from both telescopes will enhance the understanding of our galaxy and aid in the discovery of objects like isolated black holes and rogue planets. AI
