A SMALL EXPERIMENT. A BIG DIFFERENCE.

Same jump.
Another world.

You push off at 3 metres per second. What happens when gravity changes?

An ideal jump with no air resistance and constant surface gravity. Both worlds use the same height scale and clock.

Roman Space Telescope Optics Aligned to Exceed Performance Goals

Engineers working on NASA's Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope successfully fine-tuned the observatory's alignment following its launch on August 30. By adjusting the secondary mirror by about one-sixteenth of the diameter of a human hair, the team brought the telescope's optics into near-perfect alignment. Subsequent testing revealed that the Wide Field Instrument's image quality achieved an error of just 63 nanometers RMS, which is nearly 30 percent better than pre-launch predictions and will allow the mission to conduct sharper cosmic surveys.
