NASA’s next flagship mission, the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope, is a 2.4-meter observatory set to launch no later than May 2027. Roman features two instruments: the Wide Field Imager and the Coronagraph Instrument. The Roman Coronagraph is a Technology Demonstration that will push the current capabilities of direct imaging to smaller contrast ratios (∼10−9) and inner-working angles (3 λ/D). In order to achieve this high precision, Roman Coronagraph data must be calibrated to remove as many potential sources of error as possible. Here we present a detailed overview of the current plans for the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope Coronagraph Instrument Observation Calibration Plan, including identifying potential sources of error and how they will be mitigated via on-sky calibrations.
