  2. "Roman Telescope Saves Fuel, Doubles Mission" by @hackaday - Several factors have added up to extend #NASA #RomanSpaceTelescope🔭 expected mission duration from 10 to 22 years due to better than planned propellant quantity. These factors include building the spacecraft less than original design weight, using the extra mass budget to completely fill the tanks, good accuracy of the launch's orbital insertion and efficient course correction rocket firings. hackaday.com/2026/09/30/roman- #astronomy #space

  5. NASA’s space telescopes allow humanity to study the universe above Earth’s atmosphere.

    Hubble has transformed astronomy since launching in 1990.

    Roman is designed to study dark energy, dark matter and planets beyond our solar system.

    The deeper NASA looks into space, the further back into cosmic history scientists can see.

  15. "Roman rises! Get to know NASA’s newest space telescope" by @cosmiclog / @alanboyle - #NASA #RomanSpaceTelescope🔭 started as surplus/cancelled spy satellite hardware offered by NRO to NASA. The result is an observatory with the resolution of Hubble expanded to 100 times wider view. And a "coronagraph" can block a single star's light to look directly at its planets, which would otherwise be hopelessly lost in its glare.

  25. "NASA's Roman Space Telescope is ready for launch aboard SpaceX Falcon Heavy rocket" by @Spacecom / Josh Dinner - #RomanSpaceTelescope🔭 launch scheduled Sunday, August 30 at 1126UTC 0726ET. (I probably won't be watching live at 0426PT.) Astronomers are highly anticipating it. It will have similar resolution to Hubble over 100x bigger field of view. At Lagrange Point L2 (same as JWST) it won't have day/night cycles of low Earth orbit that Hubble does. space.com/space-exploration/la #astronomy #space

  27. "Launch Dress Rehearsal Complete Ahead of NASA Roman Space Telescope Liftoff" by US🇺🇸 National Aeronautics & Space Administration #NASA - #RomanSpaceTelescope🔭 is still scheduled for August 30 launch. The launch dress rehearsal followed all the procedures for launch. This did not include propellant loading of the #SpaceX #FalconHeavy rocket🚀, which is tested separately without the satellite. (Lesson learned from 2016.) After launch, 100 days to reach L2. science.nasa.gov/blogs/roman/2 #astronomy #space

  28. NASA is gearing up to launch the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope on August 30 sending the spacecraft 1 million miles from Earth to unlock the mysteries of the universe.

    Roman will investigate and answer questions about dark matter, dark energy, cosmology, exoplanets and astrophysics, by capture panoramic images about 100 times larger than the Hubble Space Telescope. upi.com/Top_News/US/2026/07/14 #NASA #Astronomy #Space #SpaceTelescope #RomanSpaceTelescope #OuterSpace #Research #Universe #Astrophysics #DarkMatter #Exoplanets #Hubble #Cosmology #SpaceExploration

  29. "NASA’s Roman telescope into prelaunch servicing following arrival in Florida" by NASASpaceFlight - #NASA #RomanSpaceTelescope🔭 is undergoing final inspections and tests before propellant loading for flight. Launch currently scheduled for Aug 30.

  32. "Roman Space Telescope Launching in September" by Space Policy Online / Marcia Smith - #NASA #RomanSpaceTelescope🔭, named for astronomer Nancy Grace Roman, has a launch date: no earlier than (NET) September. It's a visible-to-near-infrared telescope like Hubble, with 100x larger field of view. It's planned to go to Sun-Earth L2 at 1M mi/1.6M km away, like Webb Space Telescope, where it won't have day/night thermal fluctuations that Hubble does. spacepolicyonline.com/news/rom #astronomy #space

  38. The level of risk that #musk #spacex is willing to take is the reason for its “advantage” over the #nasa space program. With yet another explosion, the question of whether this strategy is truly sustainable becomes even more urgent. I imagine with great concern the future launch of the very important #RomanSpaceTelescope, which for now is contracted to SpaceX. reuters.com/science/spacex-sta
