The Euclid telescope captured an image of the 1,000 galaxies contained within the Perseus cluster, as well as 100,000 faint, distant galaxies behind the cluster. The cluster is located 240 million light-years from Earth.

The telescope observed spiral galaxy IC 342, nicknamed the "Hidden Galaxy" because it lies behind obscuring dust and gas. Euclid spied new details about its stars.

Newly formed stars can be seen glimmering inside the Horsehead Nebula, a cloud of gas and dust in the Orion constellation. Scientists will also search for young Jupiter-size planets within the nebula.

NGC 6822, an irregular dwarf galaxy located 1.6 million light-years from Earth, resembles a small galaxy from the early days of the universe. It is located 1.6 million light-years from Earth.

Euclid's wide field of view enabled it to glimpse the entirety of the globular cluster NGC 6397, a grouping of hundreds of thousands of stars held together by gravity.
