The @OpenUniversity has a nice news article on the
@ec_euclid data release today, including some breakthrough work on gravitational lens discovery done by my grad student Ruby Pearce-Casey #astrodon https://www.open.ac.uk/blogs/news/science-mct/euclid-mission-reveals-spectacular-new-space-discoveries/

A nice write-up by @TheGuardian on the @ec_euclid data release, including some quotes on the avalanche of gravitational lenses by @stephenserjeant #astrodon https://www.theguardian.com/science/2025/mar/19/scientists-hail-avalanche-discoveries-euclid-space-telescope
Scientists hail ‘avalanche of discoveries’ from Euclid space telescope

Data from European Space Agency’s mission has allowed researchers to create detailed catalogue of 380,000 galaxies

data release is out now: https://www.esa.int/Science_Exploration/Space_Science/Euclid/Euclid_opens_data_treasure_trove_offers_glimpse_of_deep_fields And this is just the very start of Euclid's discovery adventure #astrodon
Euclid opens data treasure trove, offers glimpse of deep fields

On 19 March 2025, the European Space Agency’s Euclid mission released its first batch of survey data, including a preview of its deep fields. Here, hundreds of thousands of galaxies in different shapes and sizes take centre stage and show a glimpse of their large-scale organisation in the cosmic web.

Very happy to have been part of the @ec_euclid discovery of a jaw-droppingly beautiful gravitational lens in our cosmic back yard. Here's an explainer video (with subtitles for accessibility) that I made for the @OpenUniversity and I'll post a few more links in this thread #astrodon

Beautiful gravitational lens in our cosmic doorstep discovered by the @ec_euclid consortium. In the future, Euclid's spectroscopy will give us new windows into these warps in space and time.

Euclid discovers a stunning Einstein ring

Euclid, the European Space Agency’s dark Universe detective, has made an astonishing discovery – right in our cosmic backyard.

Our ELSA meeting conference, after a few days playing with Euclid @ec_euclid spectroscopy. We're enjoying the cognitive dissonance of being in a 18th century building working on a 21st century space telescope #astrodon

Rubin ObservatoryJan 10, 2025

We can't wait to see everyone at #AAS245!

Next week is the 245th meeting of the American Astronomical Society — the largest gathering of astronomers in the US. We're gearing up for some exciting talks and sessions that'll preview the incredible science coming later this year once Rubin comes online!

Euclid ConsortiumJan 12, 2025

At #AAS245 you will find the special session "241 - The Euclid Mission: First Results and Opportunities for Archival Research" on Tuesday, January 14, 2:00-3:30 PM, in National Harbor 10.

Five presentations on the current state of Euclid and it's upcoming first science data release.

Our annual ELSA meeting has kicked off! Beautiful location in Bristol University’s Goldney House, which looks like it’s straight out of Downtown Abbey @ec_euclid
