Euclid: Unveiling the Secrets of the Dark Universe

TL;DR Summary
The Euclid telescope, set to launch on July 1, aims to shed light on the mysteries of dark matter and dark energy by surveying billions of galaxies and studying the expansion of the universe. Equipped with visible-wavelength cameras and a near-infrared spectrometer, Euclid will collect vast amounts of data to measure weak gravitational lensing and baryon acoustic oscillations. By providing more accurate measurements of the pressure and density of dark energy, Euclid will help astrophysicists better understand the universe's evolution and expansion history.
