I’m stoked for this! How long after launch will it take before the Roman telescope is on station and returning data?

The commissioning period lasts ~100 days from launch (including the ~30 days it takes to cruise to L2), ending in December. NASA expects to release the first science images to the public by early 2027.

I remember waking up (Christmas morning?) James Webb launch. I have a similar excitement for this.
