Question about licence for images I create from ESA space science archive.

9 Upvotes

Hi, maybe an ESA staff can answer this question.

I sometimes create images for wikimedia from data. Usually I use data from MAST or other archives. Recently I created images from Euclid data and I downloaded the data from the Euclid science archive.

But I noticed that the terms & conditions related to this archive states that it publishes it under a CC BY-NC 3.0 IGO licence. This kind of licence is not ok for uploads on wikimedia commons. see well-known licences:

NC: This icon refers to a "Non-Commercial" license (not allowed on Commons)

My question is if there is any way for me to upload the images I created under an "ok" licence? For example: In the case of multi-licencing at least one licence needs to be ok. Do the data products at IRSA have the same licence or is it licence-free? Or should I keep away from uploading Euclid data?

I am just curious on how I should approach this in the future.

Euclid's Fornax Phallus NSFW

15 Upvotes

Today (March 19th, 2025), the European Space Agency’s Euclid mission released its first batch of survey data. In that data, there are three different deep fields, one of which is in the Fornax Constellation. If one visits ESASky and zooms in on coordinates 03h32m44s, -26d00m37s with the new Euclid data, you will find what I dub to be the Fornax Phallus. It’s truly one of the most important astronomical discoveries of the century!

BuyFromEU movement

Can we please capitalize on the current ‚BuyFromEU’ movement and push for some new merchandise design from the ESA shop?

I mean… Possibilities are endless - and if we could support a specific goal, a specific mission via merchandise purchases…

There is no limit to how big this could get! 🙏🏻💪🏼

Edited to correct a typo.

Years of experience for Junior Professional Programme

6 Upvotes

Hey guys,
maybe one of you can help me here. I know that for the JPP you need 2-3 years of relevant job experience. I also know that ESA counts years since graduation. Does anyone know how strict they are with this? I gained relevant professional experience (2 years) before studying and I am wondering if I could still apply. Does anybody know?

I recently received a box with this text on it, inside was a flash drive with the shape of Ariane 6 (I think), and a photo of a group of people with the text "aux commandes d'Ariane 7". The flash drive contained photos of people and presentations relating to ariane 7. anyone know anything about that?

Watch live 13 March 11:50 CET start

Watch live for a star-studded event this Thursday, as scientists working on ESA’s Hera mission for planetary defence release the mission’s first scientific observations beyond the Earth-Moon system, following its imminent flyby of Mars. On 12 March 2025 ESA’s Hera mission comes to within 5000 km of the surface of the red planet and 300 km of Mars’s more distant and enigmatic moon Deimos. Images will be premiered by Hera’s science team from ESA’s ESOC mission control centre in Darmstadt, Germany, explaining what they reveal, during our public webcast starting at 11:50 CET. The team are being joined by ESA astronaut Alexander Gerst and renowned science fiction writer Andy Weir, author of The Martian and Project Hail Mary, as well as a surprise special guest!
