Unraveling the Birth of Stars and Planetary Systems – CESS Cosmic Explorations

November 11, 2021 @ 7:00 pm - 8:30 pm

Tune in to the second edition in our 2021–2022 Cosmic Explorations Speaker Series focused on the James Webb Space Telescope to learn about the formation of stars and planets. We’ll explore the science, examine the unanswered questions, and discover how new observations will revolutionize our understanding of the processes that have shaped Earth, the Sun, and the solar system.

 

To present this exciting topic, the LPI is thrilled to welcome Dr. Elena Sabbi. Dr. Sabbi is an AURA Scientist at the Space Telescope Science Institute where she leads the NIRSpec Branch in the Instrument Division. She received her Ph.D. in Astronomy and Astrophysics from the University of Bologna. Dr. Sabbi specializes in studying star formation and stellar evolution in the Milky Way and nearby galaxies and is the Principal Investigator of several Hubble Space Telescope programs.
