Roman’s scans of the sky will uncover thousands of exoplanets beyond our solar system, including types of planets never surveyed before.īeyond these two primary goals, Roman will probe a range of additional astrophysical and planetary science topics such as stars in neighboring galaxies, supermassive black holes in faraway galaxies, cosmic nurseries where stars and planets come to life, and small bodies in our solar system. Using a wide field instrument, Roman will survey billions of galaxies and catch the light of stellar explosions in a quest to solve the mystery of dark energy, which is causing the universe’s expansion to speed up. Roman will provide a panoramic field of view that is 200 times greater than Hubble's infrared view, leading to the first wide-field maps of the universe at space-based resolution. Roman will combine the power of imaging and spectroscopy in synergy with other observatories to gain fresh insights into the universe through focused surveys and General Astrophysics observations. The James Webb Space Telescope has discovered the faintest galaxy ever seen, burning away the pitch-black gloom of the early universe 13 billion years ago. The Roman Project is currently planning for observatory launch in late 2026. The Roman Space Telescope is a NASA observatory designed to unravel the secrets of dark energy and dark matter, search for and image exoplanets, and explore many topics in infrared astrophysics. Project Status to the Astrophysics Advisory Committee October 18, 2022. The Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope is a Hubble-sized telescope that will revolutionize astronomy by building on the science discoveries and technological leaps of the Hubble and James Webb space telescopes. 元HARRIS TECHNOLOGIES BALL AEROSPACE TELEDYNE NASA KENNEDY SPACE CENTER SPACE TELESCOPE SCIENCE INSTITUTE IPAC EUROPEAN SPACE AGENCY.
