NASA's Roman Space Telescope Heads Toward Launch, Promising Wide-Field Skies
NASA’s Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope is finishing final tests at Goddard and is set to ship to Kennedy Space Center for a Falcon Heavy launch as early as this fall; designed for a wide-field infrared view, it will conduct three core surveys and complement JWST by mapping large sky areas, with robotic refueling planned for a 5–10 year mission and operations run from Goddard.
