NASA'S NEW ROMAN SPACE TELESCOPE AIMS TO DISCOVER 100,000 COSMIC EXPLOSIONS

Summary from the TLDR newsletter

NASA's Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope has a field of view at least 100 times larger than Hubble's. It has the potential to document light from over a billion galaxies over its career. The telescope will help researchers better understand exoplanets, infrared astrophysics, and the nature of dark matter. Roman could potentially find evidence of the very first stars to ever form in the universe. The telescope is scheduled to launch in 2027.
