100X More Powerful Than James Webb, NASA’s Nancy Grace Roman Telescope Will Study Dark Matter
The Roman Space Telescope is based on an existing 2.4 m (7.9 ft) wide field of view primary mirror and will carry two scientific instruments. The Wide-Field Instrument (WFI) is a 300.8-megapixel multi-band visible and near-infrared camera, providing a sharpness of images comparable to that achieved by the Hubble Space Telescope over a 0.28 square degree field of view, 100 times larger than imaging cameras on the Hubble. The Coronagraphic Instrument (CGI) is a high-contrast, small field of view camera and spectrometer covering visible and near-infrared wavelengths using novel starlight-suppression technology.
A revolutionary new space telescope by NASA, the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope, scheduled to launch in May 2027, to focus on the star streams that orbit Andromeda.
These star streams have gaps between them, and what do you think scientists surmise exists in the dark space between these streams? Dark matter!
