"NASA's Roman Mission: Hunting for Dark Matter in Interstellar Gaps"

NASA's upcoming Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope will use its advanced imaging capabilities to search for signs of dark matter by studying the gaps between elongated groups of stars, known as tidal streams, pulled from globular clusters orbiting the Andromeda galaxy. The telescope's wide field instrument will allow astronomers to detect stars individually and capture detailed images of Andromeda, potentially revealing new information about the nature of dark matter and its interaction with globular cluster streams. This research could provide insights into the existence and properties of dark matter sub-halos within galaxies, ultimately redefining our understanding of the universe.
