1,000 times faster than Hubble: Up close with the NASA space telescope meant to unlock the cosmos

NASA's Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope is set to launch after nearly two decades of development and a cost of $4.3 billion. The telescope, which will operate from approximately 1 million miles from Earth, aims to survey the cosmos at a rate significantly faster than previous instruments like Hubble. Its goals include studying dark matter and dark energy, mapping large portions of the sky, and discovering thousands of exoplanets.
