Virtual Astronomy Live: Featuring Keith Parrish & Charlene Morrow
Written By Dionne Thornton
The James Webb telescope will reach its destination in a matter of months, and begin unfolding like an Origami telescope. This video features Keith Parish, observatory manager for the James Webb Space Telescope, and Dr. Charlene Morrow, former board chair of OrigamiUSA. What might these two have in common? The principles of Origami played an important role in the design of solar reflectors in space that keep astronauts safe. It's geared towards teenagers and adolescents and is hosted by the Intrepid Sea, Air & Space Museum.
