Euclid Reveals Milky Way's Stellar Core
Description
Euclid just dropped the most detailed Milky Way core image ever — 60 million stars in one shot — and it’s not just pretty pics, it’s a planet-hunting powerhouse. Built from nine photos taken over 26 hours, this space telescope’s microlensing technique spots exoplanets by catching tiny light dips caused by their gravity. The new image reveals 51 known planetary systems and could unlock hundreds more. With a six-year mission ahead, Euclid’s mapping the galaxy to unravel dark matter, dark energy, and cosmic secrets from billions of years ago — this is just the beginning.
