As the pandemic continues here on Earth, the recent launch of the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) has presented a welcome chance to explore celestial bodies above. This Tuesday evening, the Hammer Theatre offers a live-streamed conversation followed by virtual Q&A about the decades of preparation that led to the JWST’s launch and its current exhilarating journey through deep space. Panelists Ali Guarneros Luna, a NASA aerospace engineer, and Michael Kaufman, a professor of astronomy at SJSU, bring enthusiasm and insight to this special moment in the story of our universe.
