NASA’s Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope Surpassing Expectations Even Before Launch, Reveals Research
NASA’s upcoming Roman Space Telescope is expected to measure seismic waves in over 300,000 red giant stars, far greater than early predictions. These signals will help scientists better understand exoplanet systems and the Milky Way’s ancient core. Researchers say Roman’s natural survey design enables this breakthrough even before the telesco...
