NASA announced on 22 October that the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope has begun the final stage of preparations for science operations, having already captured its first images of the cosmos. The telescope's team is now working to correct for small hardware imperfections so they do not mislead astronomers with false signals. The mission, designed for wide-field sky surveys, is moving toward delivering data to the scientific community.

Why now: The Roman telescope reaching its final commissioning stage and producing first images is a major milestone for astronomy.
