I have to admit it, working here is a dream job.

@NASA/Hubble is currently getting ready to perform one of our calibration experiments with the Advance Camera for Surveys (STRAYCOR) that will help us to improve the quality of the telescope's images and even make Roman Space Telescope even more sensitive to the darkest regions of the Universe.

A good indicator of a housing crisis is when your wife considers the apartments at City 17 "actually pretty nice."

We got 13 orbits to observe with Hubble Space Telescope!

I thought I missed the opportunity to point Hubble somewhere in the sky.

We will observe the Moon and Jupiter to improve the calibration of the Advance Camera for Surveys. Stay tuned!
