Скачать или смотреть Meet Maca | MIRI Instrument Scientist Behind NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope

The James Webb Space Telescope is the world’s premier space science observatory. Webb will solve mysteries in our solar system, look beyond to distant worlds around other stars, and probe the mysterious structures and origins of our universe and our place in it. Webb is an international program led by NASA with its partners, ESA (European Space Agency) and CSA (Canadian Space Agency). Webb has four science instruments: Near-Infrared Camera (NIRCam), Near-Infrared Spectrograph (NIRSpec), Mid-Infrared Instrument (MIRI), and Near-Infrared Imager and Slitless Spectrograph (NIRISS) with the Fine Guidance Sensor (FGS). For more information about the Webb mission, visit: https://www.nasa.gov/webb.

Webb instrument scientists talk about their career journey and Webb first images:

Dr. Macarena Garcia Marin sheds light on how the Mid-Infrared Instrument (MIRI) aboard NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope can see the invisible – mid-infrared light, which is invisible to our eyes! She reveals her favorite Webb image and what inspired her to become a scientist. Looking to pursue a career in STEM? Maca shares valuable encouragement and advice just for you. Maca is an instrument scientist at ESA (European Space Agency).
