Title

  • Finding Our Origins with the Hubble & James Webb Space Telescopes

Summary

  • Jonathan Gardner discussed some of the most important astronomical discoveries of the last 20 years, the Hubble Space Telescope's greatest accomplishments and the promise of its successor, the James Webb Space Telescope. Using a flood of data from Hubble, other missions, telescope observations and super-computer simulations, we are starting to piece together the story of how simple particles, mass and energy that formed in the Big Bang changed over time to become galaxies, stars and planets today.
