Astronomy and space science is moving from occasional landmark images to continuous, high-volume discovery systems. Roman, Rubin, Webb, and planetary-defense missions show how the field is changing in 2026.
NASA space science in 2026 is defined by Artemis II’s completed lunar flyby, Roman’s launch and new infrastructure choices for Mars. This briefing separates confirmed milestones from still-pending mission decisions.
NASA’s Roman Space Telescope launch adds a wide-field survey observatory to a fleet that already includes Hubble, Webb and Euclid. The change is not about one telescope replacing another, but about space observatories working together across different wavelengths, scales and science goals.
STScI is the science operations hub behind Hubble, Webb and the incoming Roman Space Telescope. Its work links telescope time, observation planning, data processing, archives and public access for modern astronomy.
