The Roman Telescope will launch on a SpaceX Falcon Heavy rocket from NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida. Named after NASA’s first chief astronomer, the ‘mother of the Hubble Space Telescope,’ the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope will have a field of view at least 100 times larger than Hubble's, potentially measuring light from a billion galaxies in its lifetime. This observatory will also be able to block starlight to directly see exoplanets and planet-forming disks, complete a statistical census of planetary systems in our galaxy, and settle essential questions in the areas of dark energy, exoplanets, and infrared astrophysics.Our doors will open at 5:00 a.m. with NASA LIVE streaming in the Northrop Grumman IMAX Theatre with an anticipated launch at 5:20 a.m. MDT.* Should the launch be scrubbed prior to Sunday morning, we will reschedule for the next window once that information is announced. https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events7/banners/afc59380-a19b-11f1-a977-99d1d33e99bd-rimg-w1200-h675-dc987868-gmir.jpg https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events5/banners/b0050d80-a19b-11f1-a977-99d1d33e99bd-rimg-w1200-h675-dc2898f8-gmir.jpg https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events10/banners/b0351e30-a19b-11f1-a977-99d1d33e99bd-rimg-w1200-h675-dc2898f8-gmir.jpg https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events8/banners/b044fcb0-a19b-11f1-a977-99d1d33e99bd-rimg-w505-h740-dc080808-gmir.jpg - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/salt-lake-city/nasas-nancy-grace-roman-space-telescope-launch-northrop-grumman-imax/100001995508567844 - **Event Categories**: art, theatre, parties, entertainment, virtual - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 - **Event Highlights**: - door_time: 2026-08-30T11:00:00Z - Duration: 3 hours 40 minutes - Location: Clark Planetarium - Languages: English ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 0, max: 0, currency: USD ## Event venue details - **city**: Salt Lake City - **state**: UT - **country**: United States - **location**: Clark Planetarium - **lat**: 40.7666699 - **long**: -111.9033733 - **full address**: Clark Planetarium, 110 South 400 West, Salt Lake City, United States ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: NASA's Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope Launch - Northrop Grumman IMAX - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events2/banners/c0c321ffc59ab8456508692db7ece4c1f4ae880d746e3955b81e4a21f9f5588e-rimg-w1200-h675-dc082868-gmir.jpg?v=1785401296 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is NASA's Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope Launch - Northrop Grumman IMAX being held? - **A:** NASA's Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope Launch - Northrop Grumman IMAX takes place on Sun, 30 Aug, 2026 at 05:20 am to Sun, 30 Aug, 2026 at 09:00 am at Clark Planetarium, 110 South 400 West, Salt Lake City, United States. - **Q**: Who is organizing NASA's Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope Launch - Northrop Grumman IMAX? - **A:** NASA's Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope Launch - Northrop Grumman IMAX is organized by Clark Planetarium. - **Q**: Who is this event for?
