Roman x Webb Comics

Space is like a box of chocolates, you never know what you're gonna get! This #ValentinesDay, we want to give you 18 sweet cosmic treats! Check out the thread below to learn more about these astro bites.
See how Roman could help us learn more about these cosmic delights 1/10 nasa.gov/Roman

Same as above with no lid. This group also contains individual chocolates as separate PNG files.

This Friendsgiving, you’re all invited to our universal table. Here’s what some of our missions are bringing to the potluck.
Take in the spread, then tell us what you’ll be putting on your plate!

IT’S ALIVE….well, now it has its power source! ⚡️
Roman’s power distribution unit has been installed into the spacecraft’s primary structure. This unit is the primary power source for the entire observatory and will draw energy from the solar array sunshields!

#HappyMothersDay!
Dr. Nancy Grace Roman is often called the "Mother of Hubble". Her work at @NASA made Hubble's mission possible, and also helped pave the way for space-based telescopes like @NASAWebb and @NASARoman. Find out more about Dr. Roman: https://go.nasa.gov/3BqscUX

For #TakeYourChildToWorkDay, do tiny models of our large space telescopes count? Enjoy a scrapbook of times that our experts have brought “baby” versions of Roman and
@NASAWebb to outreach events for work!

Happy #Friendsgiving, everyone! We want to share some things we are thankful for from our fellow space telescope friends. To start, we are thankful for the beautiful images we received this year from @NASAWebb

It’s time for some scary space stories to tell in the dark Beware the flickering starlight in the distance. Don’t get caught in the cosmic Webb The shadows are filled with galactic ghosts Bones from the past can hold the secrets to the future .



well, then maybe @NASAEarth will get a giggle out of this! "Hey Earth, how do you throw a party in space? You planet!" #NationalTellAJokeDay

Maybe @NASASolarSystem will appreciate my jokes! What do you call a comet wrapped in bacon? A MEATeor. #NationalTellAJokeDay

This is a collection of panels for a knock-knock joke. There is a set of single panels, double panels and the complete exchange. Click on "Download Options" to see all the individual images.

We can’t admire this masterpiece enough, @NASAWebb. Can’t wait to see the rest of the show this morning!

Thanks for letting me be the Player 2 to your Player 1, @NASARoman! It sure was fun playing the #RomanObserverGame with you — even if things got a little carried away. Rematch?
Who else wants to try it out on their computer? You may even spot Webb: https://roman.gsfc.nasa.gov/game/

As #BlackHoleWeek comes to a close, we want to thank
@NASAUniverse for this fantastic and informative event!
@NASAWebb and I even got a surprise visit from our friend, the Traveler.

The Force is strong with these two, a true friend @NASAWebb
is. #StarWarsDay #MayThe4thBeWithYou

Happy #StarWarsDay from your favorite space telescopes! Sometimes the dark side is a good thing. Webb & @NASARoman have sunshields that divide their telescopes into a “light side” facing the Sun and a “dark side” away from the Sun. #MayThe4thBeWithYou!

Three powerful siblings are we,
Who knows what space marvels we’ll see
Hubble, Roman and Webb will unite,
Bringing new cosmic knowledge to light

So glad you’re always just a call away, @NASARoman!
Even among all these stars, nothing shines as bright as our friendship. Thanks for congratulating us on our latest mirror alignment milestone!

Congrats on completing two more mirror alignment milestones, @NASAWebb! We love your focus.

I wonder if they will let me hang up my favorite superhero posters in the @NASAGoddard cleanroom? I cannot wait to join these fantastic telescopes! Is there an application that I need to fill out to join the team @NASAExoplanets?

Hey @NASARoman, to us you don’t just have a huge field of view — you'd be a dream view! Valentine's Day

We just wanted to send some appreciation to our oldest friend @NASAHubble. You have been opening the eyes of millions for over 30 years, and we can not wait to add to your legacy.

We are glad you had a safe trip @NASAWebb! We got your postcard and feel a little bit of FOMO, but we will be there before you know it!

Happy Holidays from Roman and our bestie
@NASAWebb. However you celebrate this holiday season, we hope it is out of this world!

Safe Travels, my friend
@NASAWebb!! Let me know how our home is and if there is a welcome basket!



Happy #Halloween from your fav duo Roman and @NASAWebb! Can you guess what their costumes are? They are a little far from home but still looking for some sweet treats!

We are so glad you made it to your launch location safely in French Guiana @NASAWebb! You are one step closer to reaching our forever home in space!


Congratulations on packing your sunshield, @NASAWebb! Let’s just agree that both of our sunshields are pretty cool.

Roman will be a near-infrared telescope with a much wider view than any other mission! It will study dark energy, exoplanets & infrared astrophysics, helping us discover the cosmic wonders of the universe. Happy #GoodNeighborDay @NASAWebb, catch you at L2!
