This article is about the Visions version of the galaxy. For the Pathfinder version, see Euclid (Pathfinder).

Euclid is the 1st and starting galaxy.

Summary[edit | edit source]

The Euclid galaxy resides within the "Outer Edge" (according to Gek & Vy'keen Plaques) in the No Man's Sky universe. All players initially spawn on a randomly chosen planet within this galaxy.

It appears that most, if not all, players start here after reaching the centre of the Iousongola galaxy.

Size and appearance[edit | edit source]

Euclid Core, PS4 2-23-2019

Main article: Euclid Size

Based on studies done by the Forgotten Colonies, the Euclid galaxy follows a symmetrical build. Its length and width both end at 819.000ly from the centre with the last systems in a radius of roughly 500ly being "unreachable" before they fade out. This anomaly is referred to as The Fade.

The galaxy is circular with four non-rotating spirals in wedge-shape at 45°,135°,225° and 315° respectively. Euclid is definitely not a sphere, but is build after its real world counterpart like a plate. This also explains why a further multiplier of 16 for the glyph sequence is not needed, it lacks exactly that detail in height.

Due to the glyph system a rough estimate of all regions can be calculated. The formula is the glyph region ID combinations minus the centre sphere combinations:

16^8-7^8 = ~4.29 billion regions.

The closest documented star is the centre gateway Taco (3015ly) in The Arm of Agyboli.
The furthest documented star is Delta Minoris (1.159.051 ly) in the Rabirgi Boundary.

Civilized space[edit | edit source]

Main article: Civilized space

Since it's the starting galaxy of every player, the large majority of player-created civilizations are bound to this galaxy.
The AGT Embassy has been established as a navigation waypoint and outpost by the Alliance of Galactic Travellers along with four AGT Cardinal Outposts, four AGT Ordinal Outposts and an AGT Operations Center located just outside the galaxy core.
