    Every discovery begins with light. Explore @NASARoman before launch to see how it will capture light, turn it into data, and send its observations back to Earth from about a million miles away. Explore the spacecraft: go.nasa.gov/3SDRg6W

    A typical 1980s video game screen had ~61,000 pixels. @NASARoman will capture 300 million. That’s nearly 5,000× more detail, giving scientists an unprecedented view of the universe.

    As your kids head back to school, encourage them to follow their curiosity. What starts as an interest in space, science or how things work could become the foundation for a future STEM career. A little inspiration for the school year ahead:

    Space telescopes help us understand the origins of the universe. For Caroline, space telescopes were the origin of her career journey at @NASA! Meet a mechanical engineer at @NASAGoddard working on @NASARoman in this new episode of Surprisingly STEM:

    Spacecraft exploring the universe can’t always wait for instructions from Earth. Learn how a NASA-funded business developed a way to help spacecraft autonomously detect faults and respond on their own, demonstrated using design information from NASA’s HelioSwarm mission:
    Illustration of the HelioSwarm mission showing one central spacecraft surrounded by eight smaller satellites. The main spacecraft, with blue solar panels and long boom arms, sits at the center, while the smaller identical satellites are arranged around it in a loose formation. All spacecraft appear against a plain white background, with the HelioSwarm logo in the lower right corner.

    No single telescope can tell the whole story of our universe. Every @NASA space telescope is designed to answer different questions. Together, they help scientists see the bigger picture.
