Quick takeaways
The Euclid Mission utilizes telescopes and measures dark energy to understand the expansion of the universe.
Gravitational waves and advances in technology help study dark matter and dark energy, providing new insights.
Deep dives
Exploring Dark Energy with Euclid and Roman
Euclid and Roman telescopes are being used to measure and study dark energy, the force causing the universe to expand faster and faster over time.
Dark Matter and Dark Energy
Dark matter and dark energy are still mysteries to scientists, but efforts are being made to understand their properties and effects on the universe. Dark matter is a particle that only interacts gravitationally, while dark energy is a property of spacetime itself.
Gravitational Waves and Interactions
Gravitational waves, generated by massive objects like black holes, can interact with each other and are being studied to learn more about dark matter and dark energy. Advances in technology have allowed for the detection and measurement of these waves, providing new insights into the universe.
The Euclid Mission and Geometry
The Euclid mission is named after Euclid, the father of geometry, because it aims to measure the geometry of the entire universe. By studying the shapes, distances, and motions of galaxies using visible and infrared light, Euclid is expected to provide valuable data on dark matter and dark energy.
What are dark energy and dark matter? Neil deGrasse Tyson and comedian Chuck Nice learn about the Euclid Mission and our latest efforts to uncover the secrets of The Dark Universe with JPL Researcher, Jason Rhodes.
