Astronomers George & Marcia Rieke | James Webb Space Telescope
Astronomers Marcia and George Rieke discuss the James Webb Space Telescope with University of Arizona President Robert C. Robbins. They share why the JWST is so important, what it will accomplish for space science, and what makes their partnership work so well. The Riekes’ work and their legacy are reminders of what we can accomplish as a university and as a species when we invest in discovery and follow the spirit of exploration.
