An independent, sourced guide tracks NASA's Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope from launch toward its destination at Sun–Earth L2.

Landing page captured for the 2026-08-31 issue.

Field notes

The site combines a mission dashboard with explanatory editorial pages: a reader can move from the current estimated position and mission day to a full timeline, a 3D route to the Sun–Earth L2 region, or guides on instruments and science. The homepage lists a 2.4 m primary mirror, a field of view at least 100 times wider than Hubble's, and approximately 1.4 TB of daily data. Planned milestones, including early-2027 first images, are labeled as expectations.
