Abstract

The article discusses the Euclid telescope, which is being used by the European Space Agency (ESA) to create the most extensive 3D map of the Universe to date. The telescope has the capability to create sharp visible and infrared images across a large portion of the sky, allowing for the observation of billions of galaxies. The Euclid telescope will be used to study dark matter and dark energy, which make up a significant portion of the cosmos but are not well understood. The article also mentions a new technology being tested by Boeing that uses lasers, cameras, and spectroscopy to determine jet thrust, potentially revolutionizing in-flight thrust measurement.
