You've got a friend in me, Euclid!
Last year,
@esa's Euclid space telescope paused its usual observations to look at the heart of our Milky Way Galaxy, previewing one of Roman’s major surveys.

The color ombres like a sunset, from dark maroon in the upper left to a lighter orange and then yellow in the lower right. At the right of the frame, thick molecular clouds appear as dark patches that obscure parts of the galactic bulge beyond. Toward the left, the view rises to higher galactic latitudes: the yellow glow of the bulge becomes clearer, with fewer and more isolated foreground clouds interrupting the starlight.
