Equipment sits in the NASA Goddard clean room, a large, 4-story white room. On the right wall are rows of orange squares, which are a wall of air filters. In the bottom right corner of the frame is a rectangular, silvery tent-like structure that is open in the front. Inside is the coronograph instrument, which is wrapped in metallic kapton, and sitting inside a white metal support.

I went on a tour of the NASA Goddard Space Flight Center today with a group of students. The highlight was seeing (parts of) the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope being tested in the massive clean room.
From left to right, we see the spacecraft bus (where the computers, communications equipment, and propellent are housed), spare solar panels, and the coronagraph instrument (under the silver tent thing, near the wall of air filters).
