Over 90 participants were up for the challenge to visualise just how much we know and don’t know in the Universe and explain the #CosmicMystery that ESA’s Euclid mission will soon begin to investigate. From songs, crochets and animations to apparel, paintings and baked goods, the creativity of participants amazed the judges.

It’s even harder to imagine how little we know of the Universe, and how much still remains a cosmic mystery for ESA’s Euclid mission to try and untangle.

Over 90 participants used their ingenuity to convey the mind-bending 5-25-70 ratio of the components of the Universe, the limits of what we currently know and the intricate case that stands before Euclid, the Dark Universe detective.
