It will now make a three-month, one-million-mile journey to its orbit at the second Sun-Earth Lagrange point (L2) beyond the Moon.

Its first images are expected to arrive in early 2027.

SpaceX Falcon Heavy propels telescope on cosmic quest to investigate dark energy and matter.

Using a donated Hubble-class mirror originally built for a spy satellite, NASA's Roman Space Telescope launched Sunday on a $4.3 billion mission to open a new window on the universe, taking wide-angle, ultra-sharp images that would require a half million 4K TVs to show in full.

Named for NASA’s first chief astronomer, the Nancy Grace Roman is a survey telescope, designed to look far and wide into cosmic time and 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.

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.

Mark Clampin, NASA’s Deputy Associate Administrator for Science, says the new telescope's panoramic view of space and its rapid survey speeds offer the opportunity for scientists to study the cosmos as never before, with wide-field surveys examining its structure, composition and evolution.

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