🚀 Launcher: Falcon Heavy
🏗️ Launch Provider: SpaceX → [105 launches this year]
🌍 Launch Site: Launch Complex 39A at Kennedy Space Center, FL, USA 🇺🇸

📺 Watch Live: 1

📡 Mission Description:
The Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope is a NASA infrared space telescope with a 2.4 m (7.9 ft) wide field of view primary mirror and two scientific instruments. The Wide-Field Instrument (WFI) is a 300.8-megapixel multi-band visible and near-infrared camera, providing a sharpness of images comparable to that achieved by the Hubble Space Telescope over a 0.28 square degree field of view, 100 times larger than imaging cameras on the Hubble. The Coronagraphic Instrument (CGI) is a high-contrast, small field of view camera and spectrometer covering visible and near-infrared wavelengths using novel starlight-suppression technology. Roman objectives include a search for extra-solar planets using gravitational microlensing, and probing the expansion history of the Universe and the growth of cosmic structure, with the goal of measuring the effects of dark energy, the consistency of general relativity, and the curvature of spacetime.

↗️ NEXT LAUNCH:

🛰️ Mission: Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope
🚀 Launcher: Falcon Heavy
🕒 Scheduled for: Sun, 30 Aug 2026 11:26:00 UTC 
Current T-0 confirmed by official or reliable sources.
🏗️ Launch Provider: SpaceX → [105 launches this year]
🌍 Launch Site: Launch Complex 39A at Kennedy Space Center, FL, USA 🇺🇸

📡 Mission Description:
The Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope is a NASA infrared space telescope with a 2.4 m (7.9 ft) wide field of view primary mirror and two scientific instruments. The Wide-Field Instrument (WFI) is a 300.8-megapixel multi-band visible and near-infrared camera, providing a sharpness of images comparable to that achieved by the Hubble Space Telescope over a 0.28 square degree field of view, 100 times larger than imaging cameras on the Hubble. The Coronagraphic Instrument (CGI) is a high-contrast, small field of view camera and spectrometer covering visible and near-infrared wavelengths using novel starlight-suppression technology. Roman objectives include a search for extra-solar planets using gravitational microlensing, and probing the expansion history of the Universe and the growth of cosmic structure, with the goal of measuring the effects of dark energy, the consistency of general relativity, and the curvature of spacetime.

U.S. Gov's FAA is proposing to amend space launch licensing regulations to "reduce regulatory burden" for space operators.

The proposed rule would waive requirements from 13 federal laws for certain commercial space licenses including: National Environmental Policy Act, the Endangered Species Act, parts of the Clean Water Act, the Clean Air Act, the National Historic Preservation Act, the Marine Mammal Protection Act and several other and natural resource laws.

The proposal is now open for a 30-day public comment period. https://www.transportation.gov/briefing-room/liftoff-trumps-transportation-secretary-sean-p-duffy-announces-major-move-streamline
