Roman Telescope: Hubble's Resolution, 100x the Sky, Open Data

NASA's $4.3 billion Roman Space Telescope launches August 30 from Kennedy Space Center. Its 300-megapixel infrared camera matches Hubble's resolution across a field of view 100 times wider. NASA estimates it could capture light from a billion galaxies. All imagery will be public immediately — a policy that could expand open-access astronomy worldwide.
