The European Space Agency's Euclid space telescope, originally designed to study dark energy and dark matter, has captured the most detailed visible-light image ever of the Milky Way's galactic core. The image reveals more than 60 million individual stars in the densely packed galactic bulge, a region where most instruments typically struggle to resolve separate stars.
