ALT Artist concept of Roman's array of 18 detectors, outlined in light blue against a navy blue background with stars. They are arranged in an arc, with six columns of boxes across and three rows down. A thin, white, arched line in the lower left of the graphic is labeled "Moon's apparent size." Blue text over the left-most column of detectors reads, "WFI 2700 x 1360 arcseconds. Two yellow boxes on the far left are labeled "NIRCam 260 x 130 arcseconds." And a white box on the left, below the yellow boxes, is labeled "WFC3 NIR 130 x 130 arcseconds."

ALT Four small white sample cups on a tray, each holding a different portion of prepared food. The foods vary in color and texture, including a green‑flecked mixture, a golden paste, a white grain-like sample, and a chunkier mixture with darker pieces. The Artemis III crew tasted various food items on Monday, Aug. 10, 2026, at NASA’s Space Food Systems Laboratory, to determine what they’ll eat on their mission in low Earth orbit.
