The Space Telescope Science Institute (STScI) serves the astronomical community through the operation of multiple NASA flagship missions including the Hubble, JWST, and Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescopes, the development of advanced data and science archives, including Kepler, K2, GALEX and TESS, and the dissemination of astronomical information to the broadest public audiences. STScI provides support to the community and is the primary user interface for Hubble and JWST and will perform that role for Wide Field Imaging with Roman. STScI will contribute to a wide range of workshops, science sessions, splinter meetings, and exhibits throughout the meeting.
The STScI Town Hall will serve as the center piece for our AAS 244 presence. We will report on the status of our existing and upcoming missions and describe new opportunities designed to advance astrophysics through the 2020s. In particular, we discuss future plans for HST & JWST, the Roman science platform, and prospects for transient science with all three observatories. We include time for discussion to receive community input regarding new capabilities and to answer questions about our activities in the coming year.
