This is very preliminary work, but it suggests that Roman in space is likely going to be much more stable than Hubble's current visible coronagraph on STIS. Even when you're not running at full bore, you should be able to achieve a lot of science. (original figure from Vanessa Bailey) #astrosci

Not altering the orbit is understandable given the low mass. But what is much more interesting and dangerous is what about the ejecta of the impact? Will it reach the Earth, will it pose a threat?
