A tilted galaxy in infrared filled with stars. Some stars have 12 diffraction spikes (from the Nancy Grace Roman Telescope), some have 8 (from the James Webb space telescope), and some have both. In the background, faint galaxies can be seen. Two shadowed telescopes observe the stars (with ngrst on the left and jwst on the right)

This is the next step towards linking our solar system to exoplanets and a way towards the future hopeful success of the Habitable Worlds Observatory. NGRST will potentially find evidence for thousands of worlds microlensing, transits, and direct imaging 🤩🔭🧪

Nancy Grace Roman Space telescope is ready to launch. With a field of view 100 times that of Hubble at same resolution, the NGRST will carry out large surveys to detect exoplanets, and study the large scale structure of the universe, to quantify dark matter and energy.

Saw a sign in somebody's yard with a big spy camera on it with lots of cheering, complimentary words and I was like "Is this person a genuine Flock simp? Am I about to burn this fucking house down, Applejack?" It was actually hyping up the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope.

This is wonderful! We're going through a golden age of astronomy. The JWST has been amazing! Can't wait to see what the NGRST has in store for us!

It's paper day!!✨Very happy to announce that my first paper is (finally) on the arXiv today! Check it out if you want to find out how we can use stellar streams living in the outskirts of galaxies to learn about their dark matter halos! 🔭🧪 arxiv.org/abs/2402.13314
Probing the dark matter haloes of external galaxies with stellar streams
Stellar streams have proven to be powerful tools for measuring the Milky Way's gravitational potential and hence its dark matter halo. In the coming years, Vera Rubin, Euclid, ARRAKIHS, and NGRST...

For those wanting to track the NGRST Falcon Heavy upper stage, SpaceX asked us if we could put this online. This is a temporary file, but SpaceX is interested in making this data available in the future. This is CATNR 100533/2026-199B/FALCON HEAVY R/B (not 2026-200A): celestrak.org/pub/mission_...

100.000 Exoplaneten sollen mit Transit-Methode entdeckt werden können, erstmals bis Erd-Größe. Das Infrarot-Teleskop kann durch Staub-Nebel und kosmischer Rotverschiebung hinter die Kulissen schauen. Mit moderner Elektronik kartografiert es 1000 mal schneller als Hubble.

Hubble doesn't have to do this because it can push against the Earth's magnetic field. NGRST is too far away since it's at the L2 point

I can't see NGRST being cancelled, given how it's too close to the finish line. The hammer will probably drop on something else.
