ESA’s Euclid mission
Nasa plans to open up coverage of the European Space Agency’s latest space mission, allowing people all over the world to watch the space agency at work.
A new mission that is planned to explore the deepest hidden depths of Space will be fully covered online, according to a statement made on the website of space experts.
The event, which is being organised in cooperation with SpaceX, will take place on Saturday, July 1. It will feature a complete presentation of the Euclid mission, giving space enthusiasts an inside look at how the space agency operates.
But what is Euclid, where is it going, and what is it looking for? Here’s what we know.
What is ESA’s Euclid mission?
The European Space Agency is collaborating with Nasa on the Euclid mission, which will see the spacecraft launch.
Euclid is equipped with a telescope, allowing astronomers to delve deeper into space than ever before.
According to the mission’s website, it will “explore the composition and evolution of the dark Universe.”
The space telescope is expected to create a massive map of the universe’s structure over time by “observing billions of galaxies out to 10 billion light-years across more than a third of the sky.”
Euclid will investigate how the universe and its galaxies have evolved over time, as well as the role of gravity and “the nature of dark energy and dark matter, two of the biggest modern mysteries about the universe,” according to the ESA.
A SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket will launch from the Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida, USA. The rocket’s goal is to reach the ‘Lagrange point,’ which is 1.5 million kilometres away from Earth.
How to watch the mission
The mission will be covered live beginning at 10.30 a.m. EDT on July 1, which is approximately 3.30 p.m. in the UK, with the launch expected no later than 11.11 a.m. (4.11 pm UK time).
If you’re a space enthusiast, you can watch NASA Television, the Nasa app, or the agency’s website. The link to watch Nasa Live is available here.
