Euclid Dark Energy Telescope Selects Deep Fields

Euclid • News Release • June 12th, 2019

Three extremely dark patches of the sky have been selected for in-depth observations by the European Space Agency's Euclid mission. Researchers will probe these "Euclid Deep Fields" for faint and distant objects in the universe.

Spitzer awards time to observe Euclid Deep Field South

Euclid • News Release • March 15th, 2019

Prof. Claudia Scarlata (University of Minnesota) has been awarded Spitzer time to observe Euclid Deep Field South. Her team will conduct a 687hr survey of the definitive southern continuous viewing zone deep field of the 2020s using IRAC, the primary instrument on Spitzer. This survey will secure...
