NASA selects PRIMA far-infrared space telescope mission

NASA has selected PRIMA, a far-infrared space telescope mission, as its next astrophysics probe. The announcement is significant news for astronomers formerly or currently at Cardiff University and the University of Sussex, who have been involved in the instrument's development.
