Hoping for a successful launch of the Roman Space Telescope into space.

This observatory is set to map billions of galaxies and discover over 1,000 exoplanets.

In collaboration with NASA, the JAXA Misasa Deep Space Station in Nagano is ready to receive science data at high data rates.

打ち上げ、間近です。

この望遠鏡によって1億個以上の銀河とダークマターの地図を作り、1000個近い太陽系の外の惑星を見つけます。

NASAとの協力のもと、JAXAの美笹地上局において、この衛星からのデータを高速で受信します。
