I’m mainly impressed the Romans had this kind of tech.

I didn’t know they had rockets.

The future of mankind on camera. We may not like what we see.

Now here I was, thinking it was Galileo who invented the telescope, and I kind of heard that maybe the ancient Chinese may have had some, but this is the first time I have heard of the Romans having telescopes.

I was just watching the old “Cosmos” PBS series, and they mentioned that Voyager took better pictures of the Jovian moons than any up to that time, and this was 1970’s era cameras.

I am surprised that space orbiting telescopes are not being used to improve on this.

After Roman launches by May 2027...

That's quite a wait for something that is "ready". Sure hope the folks in charge have gotten the Starliner crew back to Earth by then.
