Nancy Roman Space Telescope holds potential to find 400 rogue planets in Milky Way

Posted by in categories: physics, space

The estimate of 400 rogue planets comes from a nine-year-long survey called Microlensing Observations in Astrophysics (MOA).

The Nancy Roman Grace Telescope, an upcoming space observatory, might aid in the discovery of hundreds of rogue exoplanets.

Planets of this sort float freely through galaxies and are not gravitationally tied to any star system.
