Our new flagship telescope is fully assembled. Come find out what it will discover.

We're hosting a news conference at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland, to talk about our Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope, which recently completed construction and is wrapping up prelaunch testing.

Participants include:
- NASA Administrator Jared Isaacman

Named after NASA’s first chief astronomer, the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope will have a deep, panoramic view of the cosmos, generating never-before-seen pictures that will revolutionize our understanding of the universe. Roman will also showcase cutting-edge technology, including a test of the most advanced technology ever flown in space to directly image planets around nearby stars, a key step in NASA’s search for life on other worlds.
