Euclid’s Huge New Sky Dataset Is Sending Citizen Scientists Hunting for Gravitational Lenses
The European Space Agency’s Euclid mission has released a much larger dataset, and astronomers are asking the public to help identify the arcs and rings of gravitational lensing hidden inside it.
Key Takeaways
- Euclid’s latest data release covers roughly 72 million galaxies, far larger than its initial dataset.
- AI has already flagged about 300,000 candidate images, but astronomers still want the public to help identify true lenses.
