NASA's Mega Hubble - The Roman Space Telescope

Scheduled to launch in 2025.


What do you do when the NRO (National Reconnaissance Office) makes you an offer you can't refuse?. Well in the case of NASA you update an existing design to create a Hubble on steroids that can cover the same amount of sky as one hundred Hubble's, drastically cutting down the time survey the sky and also more accurately look for Neptune sized planets around nearby stars and gather evidence to hopefully find out what dark energy really is, this is NASA upcoming Roman space telescope.
