Finished! Looks like this project is out of data at the moment!
12 Mar 2026: Fantastic inspecting!! Thanks to all of your hard work we have now completed this new test area of Euclid data. There are some really interesting candidates being posted on Talk, join in the discussion threads. We're now processing the classifications and we'll post some early finds later today. You are all incredible!! Thank you!

Massive galaxies warp space-time, bending light rays so that we can see around them. These gravitational lenses are very rare and hard to find, but you have already helped us find hundreds of new candidates.
In this new project, we will be inspecting new high quality imaging data from the ESA Euclid Space Telescope in which many previously unknown strong lenses will be hiding. We can expect many new lenses, more than we have discovered before, to be revealed in this exquisite data.
For more information about the Euclid Zoo project, in which some of you might have participated, please see the ESA webstory.
Join us as we begin this exciting new journey to find rare strongly lensed gravitational lenses in this first batch of previously unseen Euclid data!
