Description
The Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope’s core elements have been installed onto the spacecraft bus — the observatory’s powerhouse that will transport it a million miles away to Lagrange Point 2.
This combination of the spacecraft bus with the Optical Telescope Assembly, Wide Field Instrument, and Coronagraph Instrument creates the Spacecraft Integrated Payload Assembly, or SCIPA.
These components equip Roman to investigate the universe’s many mysteries, like dark energy's role in cosmic history, dark matter’s properties, and planets outside of our solar system.
