NASA specialists completed an important stage of preparing the Nancy Grace Roman space telescope for launch by installing a memorial plaque on it. The work was conducted in the Payload Hazardous Servicing Facility (PHSF) at the Kennedy Space Center in Florida. A photograph documenting the installation was taken on July 28, 2026. The Nancy Grace Roman telescope is named after an American astronomer who is called the "mother" of the Hubble Space Telescope for her contributions to the development of space astronomy. The new telescope is designed to study dark energy, exoplanets, and infrared astronomical objects, and its capabilities, according to NASA, significantly exceed those of its predecessors thanks to its wide field of view. The installation of the memorial plaque is part of the final preparatory procedures before the telescope is sent to its launch site. The PHSF facility is used for processing and testing payloads containing potentially hazardous components before their integration into the launch vehicle. The launch of the Roman telescope is considered one of NASA's key missions in space science, intended to expand humanity's understanding of the structure of the Universe.
