Brief
NASA’s Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope is scheduled to launch as early as next month and uses shape-shifting mirrors that could help detect Jupiter-like exoplanets. The detail comes from MIT Technology Review’s daily newsletter The Download.
Why It Matters
If the telescope performs as described, it could improve direct imaging of gas-giant exoplanets and advance studies of planetary systems beyond our own.
