NASA's Roman Telescope Unveils Its Advanced Optics

NASA's Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope has reached a significant milestone with the delivery of its Optical Telescope Assembly to Goddard Space Flight Center. This assembly, featuring a state-of-the-art primary mirror and nine additional mirrors, will enable the telescope to capture faint infrared light, aiding in the study of dark matter, exoplanets, and galaxy formation. The Roman Telescope, set to launch in 2027, will surpass the Hubble Space Telescope in conducting large-scale sky surveys, thanks to its advanced technology and wide field of view.
