NASA’s Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope is designed to watch the universe change with an unprecedented combination of sharp images and a huge field of view.

By repeatedly scanning millions of stars, Roman could discover thousands of distant exoplanets, uncover hidden black holes, capture supernovae, and reveal how the smallest stars evolve. It will offer an entirely new way to explore a constantly changing cosmos.
