The history of women's contributions to the fields of science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) is long and varied. But it has also often been overlooked or underrepresented. This series highlights only a very few of the women who have made important discoveries and have had a crucial impact on STEM fields. This, however, is not just a look into the past. Today, women are in every STEM discipline, in every type of job, and represent the widest range of background and experiences.

This image of the Eagle Nebula showcases the superb resolution and wide field of view of NASA’s upcoming Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope. In the center is Hubble's view of the Pillars of Creation - superimposed on a ground-based image. Roman’s Wide Field Instrument field of view is highlighted. Roman’s images will have the resolution of Hubble while covering an area about 100 times larger in a single pointing.
The wide field image for the Eagle nebula is a combination between an image taken by NSF’s 0.9-meter telescope at Kitt Peak National Observatory (Credit: T.A.Rector (NRAO/AUI/NSF and NOIRLab/NSF/AURA) and B.A.Wolpa (NOIRLab/NSF/AURA)) and an image by amateur astronomer Liam Murphy.

Comparison of Hubble and expected Rubin Observatory LSST data resolution. (L) BVz color image from the Hubble CANDELS field with θ = 0.1” and r ≈ 28.5. Roman will have comparable resolution. (R) Simulated Rubin LSST image made by degrading Hubble data to Rubin resolution of θ = 0.6”. In the Rubin image, the galaxy is blended with surrounding objects. Correlating overlapping Rubin and Roman imagery would make it possible to develop machine learning algorithms to deblend Rubin imagery that does not overlap with Roman.

This image showcases UGC 2885 (Rubin's Galaxy), with Hubble's view in inset and the Roman field of view. Roman will be able to capture the entire halo of galaxies like Rubin in a single pointing, which is about 100 times larger than a Hubble pointing.
Image being updated by STScI, will be available shortly!
The Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope will partner with other observatories such as JWST, the Hubble Space Telescope, and Vera Rubin Observatory to help solve some of the universe’s greatest mysteries. The synergy will produce results greater than anything that could be achieved by any one telescope. | Illustration: J. Kang/STScI | Image | 718.5 KB | JPG | post_03 |
