A European space telescope blasted off Saturday on a quest to explore the mysterious and invisible realm known as the dark universe.
Named for antiquity’s Greek mathematician, #Euclid will scour billions of galaxies covering more than one-third of the sky. By pinpointing the location and shape of galaxies up to 10 billion light-years away scientists hope to glean insight into the #darkenergy and #darkmatter that make up most of the universe and keep it expanding. #ESA
