JWST Flight Instrument NIRISS/FGS Delivered From the Canadian Space Agency
Following the delivery of MIRI from the European Space Agency on May 29th, 2012, the second JWST flight instrument NIRISS/FGS has been delivered from the Canadian Space Agency to NASA/GSFC. More information on the instrument's characteristics and science potential can be found here (NIRISS, FGS).
The JWST team will be at the upcoming American Astronomical Society (AAS) Meeting in Austin, TX on Jan. 09-12th, 2012. The JWST booth will be a part of the STScI booth, and will feature new science brochures, flyers and multimedia products on the technical progress of the mission, and 3D videos. Scientists from both STScI and GSFC will be available to field questions. We encourage community members to engage the team with ideas on the topic of maximizing the scientific return of the mission.
In addition to the booth, we will host a 1 hour JWST Town Hall on Monday January 9th at 12:45 pm in Ballroom G (Session 119). The Town Hall will feature two short presentations on the status of the JWST project, followed by a science talk by Dr. David Charbonneau (CfA) - "Sniffing Alien Atmospheres with JWST". Ample time will be reserved for comments and questions from the audience.
