The Space Telescope Science Institute (STScI) serves the astronomical community through the operation of multiple NASA flagship missions including the Hubble, Webb, and Roman Space Telescopes, the development of advanced data and science archives, including Kepler and TESS, and the dissemination of astronomical information to the broadest public audiences. Offering this breadth of resources to help the scientific community advance, STScI provides support and the primary user interface for Hubble, Webb and Roman. STScI will contribute to a wide range of workshops, science sessions, splinter meetings, and exhibits throughout the meeting.
The STScI Town Hall serves as the center piece for our AAS 243 presence. We report on the status of our existing and upcoming missions and describe new opportunities designed to advance astrophysics through the 2020s. In particular, we present a descriptions how the Office of Public Outreach at STScI supports press releases and delivers science visualizations. We also present updates on the process for getting community input for the Core Community Surveys, and on how notebooks are being developed at STScI to help support community analysis of extensive datasets, in preparation for Roman and Rubin. We will include time for discussion to receive community input regarding new capabilities and to answer questions about our activities in the coming year.
