[Artist Concept] Meet our new space telescope! With a view 100 times bigger than that of our Hubble Space Telescope, the Wide Field Infrared Survey Telescope (WFIRST) will help unlock secrets of the universe, discover new worlds and advance the search of planets suitable for life. This spacecraft is slated to launch in the mid-2020s.
