We put up a new @ec_euclid blog post: "How do we know the Universe is expanding?"

The first in a series about #ESAEuclid's core #science: #cosmology.

New #research, published in #TheAstrophysicalJournal, has revealed the distribution of #darkmatter in never-before-seen detail, down to a scale of 30,000 light-years. The observed distribution #fluctuations provide better constraints on the nature of dark matter.

Astronomers Observe Blobs of Dark Matter Down to a Scale of 30,000 Light-Years Across

Although dark matter appears to dominate the mass of the Universe, astronomers still don't know what it is and haven't been able to study it in the lab. But its impact on the Universe can be mapped, thanks to gravitational lensing, where the mass of dark matter distorts the path taken by light that passes through it. A new team of researchers has mapped out regions of dark matter with unprecedented detail, down to a scale of 30,000 light-years. These fluctuations will allow astronomers to constrain its causes better.

Congratulations to physicist and EPFL professor Lesya Shchutska for winning the #LatsisPrize 2023. Her research concerns particles that do not exist in the #StandardModel but may make up #DarkMatter.

#ESAEuclid's issues with the Fine Guidance Sensor 🧭 are being worked on by industry 👨🏽‍🏭 👷🏿‍♀️ , with tests first on ground before upload to the #Euclid spacecraft 🛰️.

#Twilight really is a nexus of weird.

Jacob, you are *not* invited to the party, you fucking creep.

Dark matter is mysterious, but some scientists think it may be gathering in the ultra-dense innards of neutron stars, potentially causing them to detonate in massive explosions. More from Live Science: https://flip.it/KPwZLH

And no, we can't send goodies to every follower, as much as we wanted to. However, over the next years #ESAEuclid will provide science-grade data for 15,000 square degrees of the sky to scientists and the public. To everyone, for everyone!

That's 1,000,000 (one million!) times the area of our First Light images 😳, and a total of about 30,000,000,000,000 (3x10^13) science pixels worth of night sky! 😯

We would like to welcome @oceane as our 1000th follower - yay! 🎇 A small goodie bag will be heading their way soon. 🎉

It's great to see such a diverse set of people from such a diversity of backgrounds interested in this mission. Rightfully so 😉!

Dans le numéro de Ciel&espace actuellement en kiosque, je vous parle longuement de la mission @ec_euclid. Et pour ceux que ça intéresse, le premier article de ce dossier est maintenant accessible en ligne :)

Scientists are digging deep underground to find dark matter, the mysterious substance that makes up most of the matter in the universe. Dark matter does not interact with light or ordinary matter, so it can only be detected by its gravitational effects. Finding dark matter could help us understand the origin and evolution of the cosmos and the nature of reality itself.

If you want to browse an (incomplete) collection of media reports and reactions 📰🖥️🎙️in various languages about #ESAEuclid, we are curating a list on our website.

We have articles ranging from outlooks, to (pre)launch 🚀 reports to first light 💡. So far.

"Required dark matter properties"

... we have two very different requirements on the dark matter. From a cosmological perspective, we need it to be dynamically cold. Something non baryonic that does not interact with photons or easily with baryons.

From a galactic perspective, we need something that knows intimately about what the baryons are doing.

#ESAEuclid has successfully completed its #commissioning. A collaborative effort of #ESA, the @ec_euclid, and industry partners established communication 📡, turned on and checked both instruments, focussed the #telescope 🔭, and tested spacecraft pointing 🛰️.

This is now complete, and the teams have moved on to "performance verification", observing science-like sequences and calibration images.
