Before many spacecraft journey into the stars, they’re designed, built, and tested at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center—located here in Greenbelt, Md. Established in 1959 as the nation’s first space-flight complex, it's a pioneering hub of exploration. washingtonian.com/2025/01/30/ins…

That's one good-looking mirror 🪞 Roman's Optical Telescope Assembly has completed critical thermal vacuum testing at @L3Harris! Check out the post below ⬇️

@NASARoman Integrated Optical Assembly has completed thermal vacuum testing! Our team brought the telescope’s mirrors down to -63 Celsius (-82 Fahrenheit) to ensure they could function across the temperature gradients in orbit. 🥶

A bus built for "Roman" around! 🚌 @NASARoman's spacecraft bus has completed construction, installation, and testing. Next up, engineers will begin integrating Roman's major components, including the science instruments and the telescope itself. go.nasa.gov/3B51RyG

It took 1,000 people and a million individual components to build @NASARoman's state-of-the-art near-infrared camera. With it, humanity will reveal billions of cosmic objects across vast stretches of time and space. We can't wait for the discoveries Roman will find!

For @NASARoman, it's a game of micrometers, not inches (that's the level of precision required to pass its latest optical test). Learn about NASA's Roman telescope and how it'll help us better understand dark energy, exoplanets, and infrared astrophysics. go.nasa.gov/3JmgoqF

Before Webb began giving us incredible views of the cosmos, our lead photographer Chris Gunn took beautiful photos of the telescope itself. Ahead of Webb's 2nd launch anniversary, Gunn has remastered some favorites, including a previously unreleased image: go.nasa.gov/47dkqex
