Humanity's capacity to witness the cosmos is about to expand in a way that strains the limits of our current tools to receive it. NASA's Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope arrived at Kennedy Space Center on June 21st, completing an 800-mile journey from Maryland ahead of an August 30 launch aboard a SpaceX Falcon Heavy. Named for the woman who helped bring Hubble into being, Roman carries a field of view 100 times wider than its predecessor — wide enough to hold a billion galaxies in a single frame — and a mandate to pursue the universe's most elusive secrets: dark energy, distant worlds, and t
