๐ญ NASA's $4.3B Roman Telescope Arrives at Kennedy โ It Sees 100x More Sky Than Hubble
The Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope has arrived at Kennedy Space Center ahead of its August 30 launch on a SpaceX Falcon Heavy. Roman's primary mirror matches Hubble's size, but its field of view is 100 times wider, letting it survey enormous swaths of the cosmos in a single shot. Its main targets are dark energy and dark matter โ the mysterious stuff making up most of the universe that we've never directly seen. After 70 days of prelaunch processing, Roman is nearly ready to go โ what do you think it'll discover first?
