SpaceX has rolled out the Falcon Heavy rocket horizontally on its transporter to Launch Complex 39A at Kennedy Space Center ahead of NASA’s Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope mission.
Roman is an advanced infrared observatory designed to map billions of galaxies, study dark energy by measuring the universe’s expansion, and search for exoplanets with its wide-field imaging capabilities.
This mission will mark another major NASA science payload for Falcon Heavy, further demonstrating the rocket’s role in launching ambitious deep-space astrophysics missions.
