Waynesboro Area Senior High School

On May 21, AP Physics 2 and AP Computer Science participated in a lecture given by Mr. Jason Brookens. Mr. Brookens is employed by the Space Telescope Science Institute where he is involved in receiving and archiving data from the Hubble and James Webb telescopes. This data is then used by scientists for various research projects. Students were able to learn about the process of getting an experiment approved, viewed images from the telescopes, heard about various roles and opportunities available in this field, discussed computer languages used in development, and asked a variety of great questions. We thank Mr. Brookens for joining us and Mrs. Lindsay Baker for arranging for his visit!
