A month with no day is estimated at that month's last day, which puts this pin on 30 November 2026; it moves when ESA names the day.

The first stage of Euclid Data Release 1 puts out all raw data and calibrated images, catalogues and spectra over about 1,900 square degrees of sky. The higher-level products for galaxy clustering and weak lensing follow in mid-2027.

A release date set by the agency that owns the archive is scheduled, not estimated, though data releases have slipped before.

ESA publishes the fourth Gaia data release, the mission's first principal release, covering the first 5.5 years of observations. It adds astrometric time series, an exoplanet list and the software to work with them.
