NASA has scheduled a virtual Galaxies Science Interest Group seminar for Tuesday, November 3 at 1 p.m. Eastern. It introduces the Roman eXtreme Deep Field program, which is planned to image an area more than 140 times larger than the Hubble eXtreme Deep Field at comparable depth in selected bands.

That combination of depth and area could uncover rare distant galaxies, active black holes and supernovae while reducing the statistical problem of looking at too tiny a patch of sky. The NASA page includes the abstract and virtual meeting information.

You do not need to be an astronomer to appreciate the scale, although the presentation is technical. If you claim a Roman Adopt a Pixel certificate, this seminar gives the mission more context.
