James Webb Space Telescope
James Webb Space Telescope
The James Webb space telescope (JWST) was launched December 25, 2021 after years of work. Learn about the intricate engineering of the JWST, designed to view objects 100x fainter than Hubble can. We’ll discuss the telescope’s planned missions including observing the oldest and most distant objects in the universe and of characterizing the atmospheres of exoplanets, and look at the first images if available. Presented by Elizabeth Koprucki, a NASA/JPL Solar System Ambassador and member of the National Security Decision Making Game staff.
