TL;DR Summary

The European Space Agency (ESA) has released the first full-color images from Euclid, its latest space telescope designed to study dark matter and dark energy. The images include the Perseus Cluster of galaxies, spiral galaxy IC 342, irregular galaxy NGC 6822, globular cluster NGC 6397, and the Horsehead Nebula. Despite initial issues during its commissioning phase, the telescope is now fully operational and ready to map a third of the sky to study dark matter and dark energy. Euclid's wide field of view and high resolution will allow scientists to collect vast amounts of data and make groundbreaking discoveries in the future.
