A new space telescope is set to reach Florida in preparation for a September launch. The instrument is designed to survey 100 times more sky area than earlier telescopes.

The telescope will be transported to Florida for final preparations. Launch operations are planned for September. Ground crews will conduct standard checks once the telescope arrives at the Florida facility. These steps precede the scheduled liftoff. The telescope's expanded field of view is intended to increase the volume of sky that can be observed in each exposure.
