In February Euclid’s surveys have officially started, the first 14 ‘Early Release Observation’ outreach and early science images have been made public, and now the consortium and ESA are gearing up for the first ‘Q1’ data release of 53 deg² to the world. “52 weeks of Euclid in space” walks us through Euclid’s and the Euclid Consortium’s first year after launch. Since February Euclid has now been pointed at more than 1000 deg² on the sky, and these data were put through the Euclid software of the Science Ground Segment.
