Roman Space Telescope launch imminent to map dark matter and energy
The Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope is scheduled to launch on August 30 from Cape Canaveral. It will capture images with Hubble-like resolution but cover a sky area 100 times larger, making it 1000 times faster at gathering data. Its primary mission is to map dark matter distribution and measure dark energy's effects over five years.
