The Outer Barrel Assembly, or OBA, is a key part of the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope. It is made of two main parts: the shell section, a baffled carbon-fiber tube that surrounds the telescope to keep the temperature stable and project it from stray light; and the support struts, which extend past the instruments to connect the shell section to the rear spacecraft bus where all the support systems are located. Although the OBA is one of the less complicated parts of the overall observatory, the testing process for it is anything but simple. This time-lapse covers one tiny part of the intricate dance that all of Roman’s systems have been working their way through on their path to joining together as the complete observatory.
Just one of the many tests the OBA undergoes is static load testing in NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center’s 120-foot-diameter centrifuge. The two parts of the OBA are separated and tested individually, with aluminum weights called mass simulators, or mass sims for short, taking the place of other parts of the spacecraft and creating the correct center of gravity. Nearly 100 sensors are connected throughout the structure to carefully measure the strain on each part of it. The OBA is attached to a metal plate which can tip and rotate hydraulically to change the position of the test hardware. These changes in position ensure that every component of the hardware experiences the full launch load.
The struts are tested in six different orientations first. Tilting for the sixth, and final test, is where this time-lapse begins. After the final test, the multi-day process of removing the struts and replacing them with the shell section begins. All of the mass sims and sensors need to come off of the struts, while, at the same time, different mass sims are added to the shell section, which is in a separate clean room. The shell section is also wrapped in protective Kapton film to reduce contamination in the non-clean environment of the centrifuge.
The struts are topped with a metal interface ring that connects them and gives structural stability. This same ring is needed to connect the shell section to the adjustable test platform and so it must be transferred from the struts to the shell. The simplest way to do this is to connect the two pieces in, with the interface ring between them, in an adjoining “high-bay” with plenty of vertical room and floor space for the two pieces to sit side-by-side on dollies. The complete OBA is then hand-pushed into the centrifuge, to a different crane, and the shell section is lifted off with the interface ring now attached only to it. The struts are pushed out and taken to the next testing step.
The OBA is attached to the centrifuge test platform and has 96 sensors carefully connected at key locations. Like the struts, it will have six spins of different intensities and positions, culminating in a final spin at 18.4 rpm and 7.1 Gs. At that speed, the wind around the edges of the centrifuge travels at 80 miles per hour, and at over 130 mph along the ground.

The solar cycle is the natural cycle of the Sun as it transitions between low and high activity. During the most active part of the cycle, known as solar maximum, the Sun can unleash immense explosions of light, energy, and solar radiation — all of which create conditions known as space weather. Space weather can affect satellites and astronauts in space, as well as communications systems — such as radio and GPS — and power grids on Earth.

Large amounts of a brown seaweed – called Sargassum – have been washing up on shorelines. In the open ocean, Sargassum is essential habitat, but can cause a whole host of issues when it washes up on Caribbean coastlines.
So where is this seaweed coming from? And how is NASA tracking it?

The stars, called novae, are not caught inside the jet, but in a dangerous area near it.
A nova erupts in a double-star system where an aging, swelled-up, normal star spills hydrogen onto a burned-out white dwarf companion star. When the white dwarf has collected a big enough layer of hydrogen, it explodes out into space.

For 46 years, satellites have been monitoring changes in Arctic sea ice. This long-term data has helped scientists understand how polar environments respond to rising temperatures and extended melting seasons. Meanwhile, Antarctic sea ice is approaching its maximum extent for the year, with some time still remaining in the growth season.

Now, NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope and the Mars Atmosphere and Volatile Evolution (MAVEN) mission are helping unlock that mystery. To understand how much water there was and what happened to it, scientists need to understand how the atoms escape into space.
A team combined data from Hubble and MAVEN to measure the current rate of these atoms escaping into space. This information allowed them to extrapolate the escape rate backwards through time to understand the history of water on the Red Planet.

Over billions of years, a relentless flow of particles from the Sun - the solar wind - has slowly stripped away the Martian atmosphere, causing surface water to evaporate. But how exactly did this happen? NASA's new ESCAPADE mission aims to find out. The Escape and Plasma Acceleration Dynamics Explorers (ESCAPADE) mission will be studying Mars' real-time response to the solar wind, helping us better understand Mars' climate history. To learn more visit science.nasa.gov/mission/escapade
The ESCAPADE mission is managed by the Space Sciences Laboratory at the University of California, Berkeley, with key partners Rocket Lab, NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center, Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University, Advanced Space LLC, and Blue Origin.

This video, covering the spring of 2024, opens with NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center’s integration and testing complex. The flight versions of the Solar Array Sun Shield panels are unpacked in Goddard’s largest clean room and placed into special racks to safely hold them. Multiple copies of hardware often exist, most for testing purposes; flight hardware is the version that will actually fly in space on the final spacecraft. The flight solar panelsarrays are the only ones covered with delicate solar cells. The Outer Barrel Assembly, also flight hardware, arrives at Goddard and is unpacked from its shipping container. This structure will surround and protect Roman’s primary mirror from stray light. Fitted to the front of the spacecraft, the Deployable Aperture Cover is another element of light protection. It will cover the aperture during launch and then deploy in space to shield the aperture from sunlight. To ensure that it is ready, engineers deploy it in a large thermal vacuum chamber. Once the hardware is deployed, the chamber will evacuates all the air and generates high and low temperature extremes to simulate the conditions in space. The Wide Field Instrument is Roman’s primary instrument and will capture enormous images of distant objects. Assembled by BAE Systems in Colorado, it undergoes environmental testing at their facilities, proving that it can function in space, before traveling to Goddard for integration with the rest of the spacecraft. The Coronagraph Instrument, a technology demonstration that will be able to directly image planets outside our solar system, was developed and built at JPL in California. After comprehensive testing there, JPL carefully transportsed the Coronagraph across the country to Goddard, where a team of JPL and Goddard engineers carefully unpacked it and performed a thorough inspection as well as continued testing. Finally, the Optical Telescope Assembly is a combination of the 7.9- foot (2.4- meter) primary mirror, the smaller secondary mirror, and many additional optical elements designed to direct the focused beam of light to Roman’s two instruments. The assembly was built at L3Harris in New York and went through testing at their facilities in preparation for sending it to Goddard. The Optical Telescope Assembly will be the last major piece of hardware to arrive at Goddard this fall.
To learn more about all these systems and where they fit into Roman, visit roman.gsfc.nasa.gov/interactive/.
Launching no later than May 2027, Roman is NASA’s next flagship astrophysics mission. An infrared survey telescope with the same resolution as Hubble but at least 100 times the field of view, Roman is being built and tested at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland. Partners from around the globe are contributing to this effort.

GRBs are the most powerful explosions in the cosmos and emit copious amounts of gamma rays, the highest-energy form of light. The most common type occurs when the core of a massive star exhausts its fuel, collapses, and forms a rapidly spinning black hole. Matter falling into the black hole powers oppositely directed particle jets that blast through the star’s outer layers at nearly the speed of light. We detect GRBs when one of these jets points almost directly toward Earth.
A few minutes after the BOAT erupted, Fermi’s Gamma-ray Burst Monitor recorded an unusual energy peak. Scientists now say this feature is the first high-confidence emission line ever seen in 50 years of studying GRBs.
When matter interacts with light, the energy can be absorbed and reemitted in characteristic ways. These interactions can brighten or dim particular colors (or energies), producing key features visible when the light is spread out, rainbow-like, in a spectrum. These features can reveal a wealth of information.
The science team says that the odds this feature is a fluke — just a noise fluctuation — are less than one chance in half a billion.
The BOAT, formally known as GRB 221009A, erupted Oct. 9, 2022, and promptly saturated most of the gamma-ray detectors in orbit, including those on Fermi. If part of the same population as previously detected GRBs, the BOAT was likely the brightest burst to appear in Earth’s skies in 10,000 years.
The putative emission line appears almost 5 minutes after the burst was detected and well after it had dimmed enough to end saturation effects for Fermi. The line persisted for at least 40 seconds, and the emission reached a peak energy of about 12 MeV (million electron volts). For comparison, the energy of visible light ranges from 2 to 3 electron volts.
The team thinks the most likely source for the emission line is the annihilation of electrons and their antimatter counterparts, positrons. When these particles collide, they produce a pair of gamma rays with an energy of 0.511 MeV. Because we’re looking into the jet, where matter is moving at near light speed, this emission becomes greatly blueshifted and pushed toward much higher energies.
If this interpretation is correct, to produce an emission line peaking at 12 MeV, the annihilating particles had to have been moving toward us at about 99.9% the speed of light.

Now, a team of astronomers analyzed over 500 images from 20 years of NASA's Hubble Space Telescope observations to find evidence of an intermediate-mass black hole by tracking seven fast-moving stars in the Omega Centauri globular star cluster.
Scientists think a massive object is gravitationally pulling on the stars within Omega Centauri, keeping them close to its center. From the motions of the stars, they estimate it has a mass of at least 8,200 times that of our Sun, the mass range for an Intermediate-Mass Black Hole is between 100 and 100,000 solar masses, therefore the only object that can be so massive is a black hole.

Now, NASA has released a new 3D visualization of these towering celestial structures using data from NASA's Hubble and James Webb space telescopes. This is the most comprehensive and detailed multiwavelength movie yet of this star-birthing region.
The movie takes visitors into the three-dimensional structures of the pillars. Rather than an artistic interpretation, the video is based on observational data from a science paper led by Anna McLeod, an associate professor at the University of Durham in the United Kingdom. McLeod also served as a scientific advisor on the movie project.
The 3D structures are approximations for how the pillars are lined up in space like a row of trees, based on observational data. The goal is to give viewers an experiential view, so that they can better interpret the otherwise flat, two-dimensional images from telescopes.

The first GOES satellite, GOES-1 (SMS-3), was launched in October of 1975. As groundbreaking as it was, it had limited capabilities and viewed Earth only about ten percent of the time. Each generation since the launch of GOES-1 has improved significantly, bringing with new capabilities and instruments. The most recent, and last generation is the GOES-R series that first launched in 2016 with GOES-R or GOES-16. This series came with new instruments such as the Geostationary Lightning Mapper (GLM) and the Advanced Baseline Imager (ABI). GOES-U, the final satellite of the series, also has the Compact Coronagraph-1 (CCOR-1) to monitor the Sun’s corona.
After GOES-U launches, its successor will be a series called Geostationary Extended Observations, or GeoXO. The first satellite in the series is expected to launch in the early 2030s. GeoXO will continue NOAA’s five decades of critical Earth-observing data with new instruments onboard.

In this video, covering the winter of 2024, Goddard’s high-capacity centrifuge goes through tests and then performs tests of the instrument carrier which will hold Roman’s two instruments. The centrifuge is 120 feet across and can spin at over 30 rpm. For the test, the instrument carrier holds test masses for the Wide Field Instrument and the Coronagraph instrument technology demonstration. The 5.6-foot (1.7-meter) wide dish on the high gain antenna system, Roman’s main connection to Earth, goes through a test deployment in Goddard’s high bay clean room. The Solar Array Sun Shield test panels are lowered into the Space Environment Simulator to undergo weeks of vacuum and temperature testing. The chamber can create a near-perfect vacuum and subject hardware to temperatures from minus 310° Fahrenheit to 302° F. The propulsion system, consisting of fuel tanks and 24 thrusters, is integrated with the primary structure. The process begins by placing a support structure called the pantheon into the clean room. The primary structure is lifted onto that, giving engineers access underneath it. Then cranes lift the propulsion system onto a nearby lift and it is pushed underneath. As the lift slowly raises the propulsion system, pillars holding small attitude control thrusters slide precisely into grooves in the primary structure. Everything is bolted together and then the single unit is lifted back off the pantheon.
To learn more about all these systems and where they fit into Roman, visit roman.gsfc.nasa.gov/interactive/.
Launching no later than May 2027, Roman is NASA’s next flagship astrophysics mission. An infrared survey telescope with the same resolution as Hubble but at least 100 times the field of view, Roman is being built and tested at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland. Partners from around the globe are contributing to this effort.

In this video, covering the fall of 2023, the instrument carrier which will hold Roman’s two instruments is in Goddard’s largest clean room and has some attachment hardware added to it. The 5.6-foot (1.7-meter) wide high gain antenna, Roman’s main connection to Earth, is more fully integrated with the communication system, and engineers test it. The Lower Instrument Sun Shade is test deployed. It will sit behind the solar panels and shade the primary structure. The Solar Array Sun Shield panels are connected to a frame that mimics the spacecraft and their deployment is tested. During launch, they will be folded in and will permanently deploy in space. These panels are engineering test copies and do not have solar cells attached to them. They can be rigorously tested without putting the delicate solar cells at risk. The propulsion tanks, which will contain the hydrazine fuel for Roman’s thrusters, are integrated onto the propulsion deck, which holds the thrusters, visible with protective red covers. A star tracker is attached, or integrated, onto the primary structure. The star tracker is a special set of cameras that watch the stars to detect any movement by the spacecraft. Lastly, the reaction wheels are inspected and then carefully integrated onto the primary structure. The reaction wheels are six spinning disks that will use electricity and angular momentum to rapidly change where Roman is pointing in space and then hold it incredibly steady.

In this video, covering the summer of 2023, the focal plane array, which contains Roman’s 18 detectors, appears in the clean room. This massive array will be the heart of the Wide Field Instrument, Roman’s primary camera for observing the universe. The instrument carrier arrives at Goddard and is cleaned and inspected. The instrument carrier will sit between the primary structure and primary mirror and will hold the Wide Field Instrument and Coronagraph Instrument technology demonstration. The high gain antenna will be Roman’s main communication with Earth. This 5.6-foot (1.7-meter) wide dish is carefully attached to an arm connected to the back of the spacecraft. A copy of the Deployable Aperture Cover goes through testing. It sits at the front of the spacecraft. During launch it will cover and protect the telescope optics. After launch it will deploy to shade them. The spacecraft harness is lowered into the primary structure. The harness is 45 miles of intricate wiring that connects all Roman’s systems to each other providing communication and power throughout the spacecraft.
