ESA’s Euclid Telescope finds 31 record-breaking ancient quasars, probing early galaxy formation ESA’s Euclid space telescope has spotted 31 ancient quasars—among the oldest and most remote objects observed—using their redshifted light to peer into the dawn of the Universe. The findings include the earliest quasars ever identified and add new constraints on how the first galaxies formed and evolved.

NASA and ESA advance lunar-surface capability planning with industry input and Argonaut mapping data strategy NASA is seeking industry input to accelerate development of lunar surface technologies, including in-situ resource utilization oxygen production, surface power, in-space manufacturing tools, and advanced nanomaterials. Separately, ESA says it will use external lunar topographic data for the Argonaut lunar lander’s design and possibly early missions while building its own lunar mapping capability for later flights.
