The precision of Hubble with the expansive vision of Euclid has got me stopping in reflection this morning. Our recent combined view of the Cat’s Eye Nebula is a testament to what humanity can achieve when nations unite behind a shared scientific purpose. No single country, institution, or mission could deliver this perspective alone. It required decades of trust, shared investment, pooled expertise, and a common belief that expanding human knowledge benefits us all. International collaboration in science is fundamental because the questions we are trying to answer are bigger than any one nation. What is the Universe made of? How did it evolve? What is our place within it? In tackling such profound questions, diversity of perspective is a strength. When we combine capabilities, infrastructure, data, and talent across continents, we accelerate discovery. In a world that can sometimes feel fragmented, science remains a powerful unifier. The Universe belongs to all of us, afterall.

HUBBLE@HUBBLE_space·
In Euclid’s view, the arcs and filaments of the nebula’s bright central region are situated within a halo of colourful fragments of gas zooming away from the star 🌬️ Meanwhile, Hubble’s data reveal concentric shells and jets of high-speed gas and dense knots sculpted by shock interactions. These are believed to record episodic mass loss from the dying star, a kind of cosmic ‘fossil record’ of its final evolutionary stages. 2/3

On this Christmas Eve, the Universe has offered us a beautiful reminder of wonder, patience, and perspective ✨ Galaxy NGC 646 sparkles in this new image from ESA’s Euclid space telescope. On a night devoted to reflection, connection, and hope, Euclid reminds us how far curiosity can carry us — and how much there still is to discover. Wishing you all a peaceful Christmas Eve, happy holiday season and a 2026 full of promise and peace. esa.int/ESA_Multimedia…

Le télescope spatial @ESA_Euclid voit ce que nos yeux ne peuvent pas voir : la lumière infrarouge. Par exemple, au sein du nuage LDN 1641 qui nous paraît si sombre, lui perçoit du gaz, des poussières, des étoiles en train de naître… Les télescopes sont des dévoileurs de mondes.

📷This shimmering view from @ESA_Euclid shows the dark cloud LDN 1641. Though nearly invisible to the human eye, Euclid’s infrared vision uncovers a rich landscape of gas, dust and dozens of newborn stars. esa.int/ESA_Multimedia…

Just over a year after launch, @ESA_Euclid was already publishing the first page of its great cosmic atlas. A mosaic of 208 gigapixels capturing 100 million sources: stars in our Milky Way and galaxies beyond. Just 1% of the wide survey that Euclid will capture over six years. 3/ #CosmicVision #CM25
