NASA's Roman Space Telescope launches with BAE Systems-built scientific instruments

The Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope is the latest NASA astrophysics flagship observatory supported by BAE Systems, following Hubble and Webb

BAE Systems says its technology aboard NASA’s newly launched Roman Space Telescope will support sky surveys up to 1,000 times faster

The Wide Field Instrument will offer a field of view at least 100 times greater than that of the Hubble Space Telescope. That capability will allow scientists to survey the sky up to 1,000 times faster, according to BAE Systems. The Opto-Mechanical Assembly provides the structural stability and controlled thermal environment needed for the instrument to meet its performance requirements. It includes the optical bench, precision mechanisms, optic…
