Integrating and Testing the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope

At the end of 2024, NASA began the integration and testing phases of the mirrors, sensors and other instruments for the new Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope.

In this video, we provide an overview of the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope’s mission, capabilities and timeline to launch.

If you want to learn more about the design of some of the major instruments featured on Nancy Grace Roman, read the feature article about it in the January 2025 issue of Photonics & Imaging Technology.

    00:00:05 NASA's Hubble Space Telescope changed astronomy forever when astronomers revealed the first Ultra Deep Field image created with more than 270 hours of observation over the course of a year the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope will have infrared resolution and capabilities similar to Hubble but each image will cover 200 times the area of Sky a potential Roman Ultra Deep Field

    00:00:32 could be far faster to capture yet cover hundreds of times as much of the early Universe to further explore this potential a team of researchers has created a simulated Ultra Deep Field image [Music] oh [Music] oh
