Dark energy, exoplanets and black holes: What Nasa’s new Roman telescope will explore

The launch of Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope was posted by @NASARoman on X.Nasa has launched its Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope on a mission to investigate dark matter and dark energy, study black holes and search for planets beyond our solar system. The agency expects Roman's surveys to uncover roughly 100,000 n

NASA's latest space telescope may up-end our entire model of the cosmos by taking a closer look at a shadowy phenomenon dubbed "dark energy".

NASA's next-generation telescope blasted off atop a SpaceX rocket at the Kennedy Space Center on Sunday. The $4.3 billion Roman Space Telescope is on a journey to peer at distant stars and galaxies. Mark Strassmann has more about what some call "the discovery machine."

CAPE CANAVERAL, Florida, Aug 30 (Reuters) - Nasa began a new mission to probe some of the biggest mysteries in astrophysics and cosmology with the launch on Sunday of the U.S. space agency's new flagship astronomical observatory, a repurposed spy satellite that will capture panoramic views of the cosmos.

Roman's efforts laid the groundwork for what became the Hubble Space Telescope, earning her the nickname "Mother of Hubble."

Nasa's powerful next-generation telescope has blasted off into space from its launchpad in Florida, with a mission to explore dark energy, black holes and other mysteries of the Universe.

The US space agency's telescope is starting a multi-year mission to create a new map of the universe and learn more about dark energy and dark matter.

Its first images are expected to arrive in early 2027.

The bus-sized telescope — named after the late Nancy Grace Roman, NASA's first chief astronomer — will take more than three months to reach its destination.

NASA's new flagship astronomical observatory was launched into space from Florida on Sunday on a mission to probe some of the biggest mysteries in astrophysics and cosmology.

One month of Roman observations can survey our entire home galaxy.

The $4.3-billion observatory will aid the search for "Earth twins" and explore the nature of dark matter and dark energy.

Astronomers will use data collected by Roman’s wide, deep gaze to study the dark universe and hunt for new worlds.
