Decades in the making. Thousands of scientists. One extraordinary mission. NASA's Roman Space Telescope is embarking on a journey that could forever change how we see the universe.
What is the universe made of? Why is its expansion accelerating? And how many worlds exist beyond our Solar System?
To answer some of astronomy's greatest mysteries, NASA launched the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope in August 2026, marking the agency’s first major space observatory named after a woman. With a field of view 100 times greater than Hubble's, this revolutionary observatory will investigate dark energy, explore distant galaxies, and discover thousands of exoplanets to help identify potentially habitable worlds.
Behind this ambitious mission lie decades of research, billions of dollars and the dedication of thousands of scientists and engineers. A technological challenge in which even the smallest mistake could jeopardise years of work.
Through the eyes of Lead Guide Engineer for NASA’s Webb and Roman Space Telescopes Dr. Begoña Vila and leading scientists Dr. Julie McEnery, Dr. Jane Rigby, and Dr. Sangeeta Malhotra, Bound for the Stars takes audiences inside NASA, revealing the scientific challenges and human stories behind this extraordinary mission.
Beyond the discoveries, the documentary explores the role of women in science, the personal sacrifices behind scientific progress and the uncertainty surrounding the future of publicly funded research.
From NASA's laboratories to the historic launch at Cape Canaveral, the film follows the mission towards the first images captured by the Roman Space Telescope.
As Roman travels towards its destination, one question remains: What will it reveal about the universe?
