Description
The 1st meeting of the JSTUC was held at STSCI on September 14-15, 2017. The committee was welcomed by the STScI Director, the JWST Senior Project Scientist, and representatives of the three space agencies. The committee received briefings on all aspects of the JWST program, including progress on the testing being completed at Johnson Space Center and the ongoing preparations at STScI and GSFC to support community science. The JSTUC will meet semi-annually to provide user advice to the observatory. More information is available on the JSTUC page.
The JSTUC members met on Wednesday evening for a reception and tour of the JWST Mission Operations Center.
