Podcast host Andrew Glester meets the following guests:
- Jacob Haqq Misra, senior research investigator at Blue Marble Space Institute of Science;
- Thomas Beatty, an astronomer at the University of Arizona who is also part of the team for the NIRCam instrument on James Web Space Telescope – scheduled to launch in December;
