We can get a sense of what the Euclid images tomorrow will look like by observing this test image released on July 31. This is a raw engineering image, taken by the VIS instrument, with very little processing; even the traces caused by cosmic rays are visible in this image.
Note that the original image is 24k x 24k pixels!
