NASA's new space telescope goes beyond Hubble

from THE DAILY BRIEF · host Josh

NASA's next-generation observatory, the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope, is officially launching to revolutionize how we map the universe. While the $4 billion telescope shares the same 2.4-meter primary mirror size as Hubble, it has been engineered with a wide-angle infrared camera that is drastically more powerful. Rather than replacing older observatories, it will serve as a wide-field companion to the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) and Hubble.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-daily-brief--6679022/support.Don’t miss our latest episodes!
