NASA reveals its Roman Space Telescope today It's a big day for NASA, as the agency is set to unveil the completed Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope in a live event at the Goddard Space Flight Center in Maryland. The $4 billion Roman Space Telescope will offer a field of view 100 times larger than Hubble's, enabling astronomers a look at some of the most large-scale structures in the universe. It will also hunt for dark matter and dark energy, and search the Milky Way galaxy for unseen exoplanets.
