Webb in Three Acts: The Telescope, The Science, The Legacy
Klaus Pontoppidan, Bonnie Meinke, and Alexandra Lockwood, Space Telescope Science Institute
NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope is expected to launch in spring 2019 and will be the premier infrared space observatory of the next decade. It promises to observe everything from planets in our solar system to galaxies over 13 billion light years away. With the Science and Operations Center of this Great Observatory right here at the Space Telescope Science Institute, Baltimore will continue and grow as a hub for exciting scientific discovery and innovation. Come find out about what we’re doing, how we’re doing it, and who is doing it in this overview of the Webb Mission.
