Scientists have created a gargantuan synthetic survey that shows what we can expect from the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope's future observations. Though it represents just a small chunk of the real future survey, this simulated version contains a staggering number of galaxies - 33 million of them, along with 200,000 foreground stars in our home galaxy.
