Advent Calendar 2023
It's that time of the year again! Each day until December 24, you can open a door of our online advent calendar to marvel at stunning images of science and find fascinating research information. Be prepared to be amazed and enjoy browsing!
This year, the background to our Advent calendar is a cut-out from one of the first images that EUCLID, ESAs new space telescope, sent to Earth at the beginning of November. It shows the surroundings of the globular star cluster NGC 6397, which lies 7200 light years away from Earth in the southern sky constellation named Ara (Latin for "the Altar").
