NASA has launched a new space telescope.

NASA has successfully launched the new Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope into space from Florida. The telescope's mission is to explore dark energy, black holes, and other mysteries of the universe. It has a field of view 100 times larger than that of the Hubble and James Webb telescopes, allowing it to capture vast panoramic views of the cosmos. The telescope will travel for 100 days before reaching its destination approximately 1.6 million kilometers from Earth, where it will begin mapping exoplanets outside our solar system. Scientists expect the telescope to discover tens of thousands, possibly even 100,000, new exoplanets, helping answer the question of whether we are alone in the universe. The telescope is named after Nancy Grace Roman, the first female director of NASA and a key figure in securing congressional approval for the Hubble telescope.
