NASA set to Launch Habitable Worlds Observatory Telescope to Find Inhabitable Planets by 2050.

International

NASA is further prioritizing its long-running search for life in the universe and laying the groundwork for its next flagship astrophysics mission after the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope (slated to launch by May 2027). This observatory would simultaneously provide powerful capabilities for transformational astrophysics discoveries, from our cosmic backyard of the solar system to the distant universe and everything in between.Currently referred to as the Habitable Worlds Observatory (HWO), this is a concept for a mission that would search for and characterize habitable planets beyond our solar system.


      The Habitable Worlds Observatory aims to identify planets with potential life-supporting environments beyond our solar system.

      Scheduled after the Roman Telescope, HWO will revolutionize our understanding of habitable zones in the universe.
