The Carl Sagan Observatory: A Visionary Space Telescope
Abstract
"Are we alone?" has been an enduring human question. The means to answer it is achievable: a space telescope that can study dozens of temperate Earth-like planets around Sun-like stars. This telescope will also revolutionize our knowledge of the Cosmos. Such a facility would be worthy of being called the Carl Sagan Observatory.
