James Webb Space Telescope Expert Panel
At the Museum | Farrand Auditorium
In mid-July, the James Webb Space Telescope will release its first astronomical images, revealing more than ever about distant galaxies, stellar nurseries, a planet outside our solar system, and the nebula of a dying star. This is just the beginning of the telescope’s planned operations; come find out more at the Museum! We'll be hosting a NASA-led expert panel via live webcast in Farrand Auditorium on Saturday, July 16 at 12:30 PM, featuring Yessi Perez, Sarah Kendrew, Natalie Batalha, Daniel Weisz, and Swara Ravindranath. Attendees can submit questions to the pool in this nationwide Q&A about one of the greatest scientific achievements of our time! (A Spanish-language panel is also available at 11:00 AM. Un panel en español también está disponible a las 11:00 AM.) You can also learn more about the James Webb Space Telescope at any of our daily planetarium shows. The expert panel and planetarium shows are included with Museum admission.
