Euclid space telescope discovers thousands of hidden dwarf galaxies
- A new generation of space telescopes, like the Euclid telescope, is uncovering thousands of hidden dwarf galaxies that hold clues to the universe's formation.
- Dwarf galaxies, the most common galaxies, are small, faint, and crucial in understanding the universe's evolution.
- These galaxies vary in types, from those forming stars (late-type) to those that stopped (early-type), and are distinguished by the presence of dark matter.
- Environmental factors like gravity and gas pressure influence the shapes and behavior of dwarf galaxies.
- Euclid telescope's advancements in imaging technology allow for the detection of faint dwarf galaxies hidden in deep space.
- Euclid has identified thousands of dwarf galaxies with unique features that help refine cosmological models.
- Studying dwarf galaxies provides insights into dark matter's role in galaxy formation and evolution.
- Euclid's ability to map galaxies and study dark energy contributes to understanding the universe's expansion.
- The Euclid mission aims to discover millions of new dwarf galaxies, shedding light on cosmic mysteries and rewriting the understanding of galaxy formation.
- Over 2,000 scientists globally are collaborating to analyze Euclid's data, unveiling new insights into the cosmos.
