We got to visit the Goddard Space Flight Center in Baltimore and visit with their Scientific Visualization Studio and Conceptual Image Lab. The trip was part of our work for “Bringing the Universe to America’s Classrooms.”
We also got to look in on construction of the new James Webb Space Telescope and its massive folding gold-plated mirror array.
