In this long exposure image, members of NASA's Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope process the observatory on Thursday, July 16, 2026, inside the Payload Hazardous Servicing Facility at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida. Roman’s primary mission is to settle essential questions about dark energy, exoplanets, and infrared astrophysics by conducting wide-field surveys that explore the universe’s structure, evolution, and composition. Liftoff atop a SpaceX Falcon Heavy rocket from NASA Kennedy’s Launch Complex 39A is targeted no earlier than Sunday, Aug. 30, 2026.
