Meet Jon Jenkins, Co-Investigator for Data Processing
"I help discover small, rocky, potentially habitable planets orbiting other stars in our galactic neighborhood. Specifically, I led the design and development of the algorithms and software for the Kepler and TESS missions..."
Science and discovery unite and inspire us—and are a source of hope in difficult times. Our continued exploration of our planet and the universe around us, while facing the challenges of the pandemic, demonstrates the power of the human spirit to push beyond our limitations and transcend obstacles.
James Webb Space Telescope #UnfoldTheUniverse Art Challenge
The James Webb Space Telescope will travel a million miles away to reveal the universe as never seen before. What do you think we’ll discover when we #UnfoldTheUniverse? Show us what you believe the Webb telescope will reveal by creating art. You can draw, paint, sing, write, dance — the universe is the limit!
NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope is a true technological marvel. Webb will be able to gather light that has been traveling for 13.5 billion years, almost since the beginning of the universe. In effect, Webb is a time machine, allowing us to peer at the first galaxies to form after the Big Bang.
