Set to launch by May of 2027, NASA’s Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope will transform our understanding of the cosmos.
In this Frontiers Lecture, get a behind-the-scenes look with Julie McEnery, senior project scientist for the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope. We’ll learn more about Roman's research objectives: to measure the effects of dark energy, map the structure and evolution of galaxies, and identify new exoplanets through gravitational microlensing.
Designed to tackle some of the most profound questions in astrophysics, the Roman Space Telescope will conduct wide-field infrared surveys that will be up to 1,000 times faster than the Hubble Space Telescope. Join us as we explore how Roman is paving the way for future missions that seek out Earth-like worlds.
The Museum’s Frontiers Lecture series explores cutting-edge astrophysics topics. This program is recommended for ages 16+.
