The Hubble image of a portion of the GOODS-South field (left) required multiple individual exposures that were stitched into a mosaic. The Roman Space Telescope will have a field of view (right) at least 100 times greater than Hubble, allowing it to capture data on thousands of galaxies in a single exposure. | IMAGE: NASA, ESA IMAGE PROCESSING: Joseph DePasquale (STScI) ACKNOWLEDGMENT: Pascal Oesch (University of Geneva), Mireia Montes (UNSW), DSS | Image | 32.8 MB | PNG | STScI-01FF85PY2TZSQRK1TVB7Y6NA0J |

is designed for large surveys of the sky. This animation gives a sense of the scale of just one of Roman’s potential survey areas, which would span an area of 2,000 square degrees – about 10,000 times the size of the full Moon. | NASA, IPAC, Robert L.

The Nancy Grace Roman Space |
Telescope is a clue-hunter. As a survey mission, Roman will observe areas of the sky repeatedly, much like going back to the room multiple times to look for new details, or details that may have changed. It will cast a wide net with Hubble Space Telescope-quality data, but with 200 times Hubble’s infrared field of view! The infrared Roman mission will greatly expand our view of the universe, and it will provide many more clues to help solve some the greatest mysteries of astrophysics. | Illustration: J.

Hubble's Rubin Galaxy press release - hubblesiteorgcontentsnews-releases/2020/news-2020-1This 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!

As a survey mission, the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope will collect Hubble-quality data but with 200 times Hubble’s infrared field of view. It will view planets by the thousands, galaxies by the millions, and stars by the billions. It will transmit almost 1,400 gigabytes of information to the ground each day—more than the storage space of an average home computer. For comparison, the Hubble Space Telescope sends less than 3 gigabytes a day, and the James Webb Space Telescope sends less than 60 gigabytes. After just five years of observing, Roman will have delivered 20,000 terabytes! All of this data will provide a treasure trove of information to scientists for many years to come. | Illustration: J.

https://svs.gsfc.nasa.gov/13667 | This simulated image illustrates the wide range of science enabled by Roman's extremely wide field of view and exquisite resolution. The purple squares, which all contain background imagery simulated using data from Hubble’s Cosmic Assembly Near-infrared Deep Extragalactic Survey (CANDELS) program, outline the area Roman can capture in a single observation. An orange square shows the field of view of Hubble’s Wide Field Camera 3 for comparison. While the CANDELS program took Hubble nearly 21 days to survey in near-infrared light, Roman’s large field of view and higher efficiency would allow it to survey the same area in less than half an hour. Top left: This view illustrates a region of the large nearby spiral galaxy M83. Top right: A hypothetical distant dwarf galaxy appears in this magnified view, demonstrating Roman’s ability to detect small, faint galaxies at large distances. Bottom left: This magnified view illustrates how Roman will be able to resolve bright stars even in the dense cores of globular star clusters. Bottom right: A zoom of the CANDELS-based background shows the density of high-redshift galaxies Roman will detect. New version will be available soon.
