Here are the first engineering images from #ESAEuclid, our mission to study the dark universe.

Each shows the full Euclid field, with 36 CCDs for the visible camera, VIS, & 16 HgCdTe detectors for the near-IR imager & spectrometer, NISP, plus zooms to show more detail.

This is just the beginning 🖖🤘

Full story & links to the very large full-res zoom images:

Euclid test images tease of riches to come

Euclid’s two instruments have captured their first test images. The mesmerising results indicate that the space telescope will achieve the scientific goals that it has been designed for – and possibly much more.

@DarthPutinKGB Why can't Ukraine just make peace with a dictatorship that is hell-bent on destroying its people, culture, and territory? All Ukraine has to do is give up some land and give Russia time to regroup and attack again in 3 years.
@timbray Ouch, that made me wince. I dealt with a similarly convoluted issue a couple weeks ago. Shout out to all the devs and sys admins who keep this platform running!
@SarahOestreich Great arcticle. I've been reading Techdirt for 10+ years but knew very little about Mike. It was nice to get the back-story on him and his blog.
@LexiSnep Ars doesn't own Reddit. Ars's parent company owns a share of Reddit.
@arstechnica Disturbing but typical of Apple.

Great news from the frontline:

After having bombed Russian supply lines, depots, command quarters, and more, Ukraine has now begun its “primary thrust” in the south with thousands of new soldiers arriving at the southern front.

In the last 24 hours, Ukraine has liberated Staromaiorske, shown here on the Deep State Map.

History will be written in the coming weeks.

@GetCarter Scotland is truly in a universe of its own.
@futurism +1 Recycling should be seen as a less bad version of throwing out. Instead people are proud of how much they recycle. We should strive to throw out as little as possible, and given how much we throw out, recycle as little as possible.
