NASA's WFIRST Space Telescope Set to Launch in July to Study Dark Energy
The European Space Agency (ESA) is set to launch its cutting-edge space telescope this July, with the mission of studying dark energy. Dark energy is one of the great unsolved mysteries of physics and cosmology, and is believed to account for nearly 70% of the universe’s total energy content. The Euclid space telescope will help unlock the secrets of dark energy, and in the process, provide valuable insight into the origin and evolution of our universe. With its powerful instruments, Euclid will map the cosmic distances between galaxies, measure the properties of dark matter, and obtain images of the universe in near-infrared wavelengths. For scientists and space enthusiasts alike, this is an exciting prospect indeed!
