A Revolution in Solar System Astronomy with JWST

During the first year of JWST’s scientific operations, hundreds of hours are being dedicated to observations of solar system bodies, ranging from the gas giants to small near-Earth asteroids. The observatory’s state-of-the-art instruments are revealing the properties of these enigmatic objects in unprecedented detail. Dr. Ian Wong of NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center will provide a high-level overview of some of the highlights from the first year of JWST solar system observations and discuss how these results will revolutionize our understanding of solar system formation and evolution.
