About this event
Euclid is an ESA mission launching in 2021 with the aim to map the geometry of the dark Universe. This space telescope will peer into the darkest regions of the Universe to unravel the mysteries behind the elusive dark matter and investigate the unknown properties of dark energy.
What?
Come along to meet experts working on all aspects of this upcoming space mission. We will have several talks followed by an “Ask Me Anything” session with our speakers: Henk Hoekstra, Koen Kuijken, Rene Laureijs, Maggie Lieu, and our host Sandor Kruk.
