NASA's Nancy Grace Roman Telescope Launches to L2 for Five-Year Cosmic Survey
NASA's Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope is set to launch on August 30 aboard a SpaceX Falcon Heavy rocket from Florida. It will travel approximately 1.5 million kilometers to the Sun-Earth Lagrange point L2, where it will conduct a five-year mission. Equipped with a Wide Field Instrument, Roman will survey over a billion galaxies, study dark energy, map cosmic structures, and search for exoplanets. The telescope aims to provide a broad, detailed view of the universe, complementing missions like the James Webb Space Telescope.
