STScI Missionwhat we do …
The mission of the STScI is to enable & accomplish breakthrough science.
and how we do it …
We enable excellence in astronomical research by optimizing the science from state of the art observatories in space.

What do we value?
![Page 5: Welcome to STScI “New” Employee Orientation Presented by: Peg Stanley John Kaylor Greg Pabst Sheryl Bruff](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649e255503460f94b13ba5/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Our Guiding Principles
• 9 principles that remind us that – We are a service organization - to the astronomical
community and NASA– Every skill and role is essential and important to
achieving our mission– We should keep bureaucracy to a minimum– Getting “it” done is the real accomplishment– It’s all about teams– Diversity makes better teams– We do really cool things here!

Missions OverviewHubble Space Telescope
• HST is an observatory first dreamt of in the 1940s, designed and built in the 1970s and 80s, and operational for 18 years (since April 1990).
• HST was the first NASA mission designed as a long-term space-based serviceable observatory. – special grapple fixtures, 76 handholds, and is stabilized in all
three axes. – Astronauts have been back to service it 4 times so far (SM3
was split into 3a and 3b) with the 5th servicing mission (SM4) coming up in October 2008
• HST is a 2.4-meter in low-Earth orbit (353 miles), with a 96 minute orbit (~5 miles per second)

Missions Overview Hubble Space Telescope
• Sensitive to wavelength range from the
UV to the IR (115—2500 nanometers) • Current complement of 5 science
instruments– Advanced Camera for Surveys (ACS) (partially
functional)– Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph
(STIS) (not functional)– Wide Field Planetary Camera 2 (WFPC2)– Near Infrared Camera Multi-Object Spectrograph
(NICMOS)
– Fine Guidance Sensor (FGS)

Missions OverviewJames Webb Space Telescope
• 1996 “Dressler” report recommended follow-on to HST optimized for the IR.
• Concept of JWST was developed in “Next Generation Space Telescope Visiting a Time When Galaxies Were Young” (Stockman/STScI et al, 1997)
• JWST is a cold observatory (40 Kelvin = -387º F) with a deployable 21m (72 ft) x 12m (39 ft) sunshade.
• JWST has a 6.5-meter (21.3 ft) deployable mirror and will be in orbit around L2 - 940,000 miles from Earth.

Missions Overview
• Kepler is a NASA Discovery Mission– survey our region of the Milky Way to detect and characterize hundreds of Earth-size and smaller planets in or near the habitable zone.– The habitable zone -> the distances from a star where liquid water can exist on a planet's surface.
• Launch February 2009• STScI is the Kepler Data Management Center
– processing, calibrating and archiving the Kepler scientific data – distributing the products to the users
