These variations occur because changes in Earth’s gravity, caused by shifting masses such as melting ice sheets, groundwater depletion, and ocean circulation, slightly alter the satellites’ speeds and separation. By precisely tracking these changes, GRACE FO allows scientists to map how water moves across the planet, improving our understanding of climate change, sea-level rise, and global water resources.This visualization uses data from GRACE FO to create an index based on percentile dryness, categorizing the dregree of wetness or dryness within three domains: groundwater storage, root zone soil moisture, and surface moisture.

The DAC will protect Roman’s instruments before launch, then swing open once the telescope is in space. To simulate weightlessness, engineers used a gravity offload system precisely counterbalanced to reduce drag during deployment. The SASS unfurled in true flight-like fashion, with its solar panels swinging into place under powerful spring tension. Each release was marked by the sharp pop of a non-explosive actuator. Both deployments were successful, bringing Roman one step closer to its mission to study dark energy, exoplanets, and the distant universe.

It is transported at night to accommodate the slow-moving specialized transport vehicle called the \"Chariot.\" Within hours of arriving, the lid of the Chariot was removed, and the lower portion was pushed into NASA's largest cleanroom for further unpacking.Designed and built by L3Harris Technologies in Rochester, New York, the assembly incorporates key optics (including the primary mirror) that were made available to NASA by the National Reconnaissance Office. The team at L3Harris then reshaped the mirror and built upon the inherited hardware to ensure it would meet Roman's specifications for expansive, sensitive infrared observations.Roman's primary mirror is 7.9 feet (2.4 meters) across. While it's the same size as the Hubble Space Telescope's main mirror, it is less than one-fourth the weight. Roman's mirror weighs only 410 pounds (186 kilograms) thanks to major improvements in technology.The newly resurfaced mirror sports a layer of silver less than 400 nanometers thick – about 200 times thinner than a human hair. The silver coating was specifically chosen for Roman because of how well it reflects near-infrared light. The primary mirror, in concert with other optics, will send light to Roman's two science instruments – the Wide Field Instrument and Coronagraph Instrument. The first is essentially a giant 300-megapixel camera that provides the same sharp resolution as Hubble across nearly 100 times the field of view. Using this instrument, scientists will be able to map the structure and distribution of invisible dark matter, study planetary systems around other stars, and explore how the universe evolved to its present state. || ", "hits": 74 }, { "id": 14746, "url": "https://svs.gsfc.nasa.gov/14746/", "result_type": "Produced Video", "release_date": "2025-01-14T13:00:00-05:00", "title": "Roman SCIPA Hyperwall Time-lapse", "description": "This 3x3-hyperwall-resolution time-lapse video of Roman shows the major integration steps of the key systems to form SCIPA, or the Spacecraft Integrated Payload Assembly.

The forest is renowned for the Pando clone, the largest organism ever found, spanning 106 acres and consisting of over 40,000 individual trees. Aspen trees, classified as pyrophile plants, rely on fire for reproduction. However, the encroachment of conifer trees in Fishlake National Forest has diminished local Aspen populations. By conducting prescribed burns, managers not only reduce the conifer tree population but also stimulate the regrowth of Aspen trees. This effort not only aims to restore Aspen populations for ecosystem rehabilitation but also contributes to advancements in wildfire science. Organizations such as US Forests Services’s FASMEE and NASA's FireSense participated in studying this burn, with NASA leveraging its unique Earth science and airborne technological capabilities to improve US wildland fire management. Beyond the fire lifecycle, NASA FireSense is intended to enable a transition from reactive to proactive fire response by facilitating increased preparedness and co-existence with fire through co-development of technology and data-informed tools with communities representing resource managers, policy-makers, and stakeholders at all levels.This page is dedicated to footage captured during the Fish Lake National Forest prescribed burn and the various events around it.NASA FireSense Website || ", "hits": 50 }, { "id": 14560, "url": "https://svs.gsfc.nasa.gov/14560/", "result_type": "Produced Video", "release_date": "2024-03-26T10:00:00-04:00", "title": "Installing NASA's Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope Propulsion System - Timelapses", "description": "The construction of NASA's Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope is fully underway now that the propulsion system is installed into the spacecraft bus.
