She also will share how the JWST’s exploration of fundamental questions about the universe, stars, galaxies, planets, and other worlds around us might impact science on Earth and in Hawaii. Canadian-born Dr. Rousseau-Nepton is the first woman from the First Nation of Canada to earn a Ph.D. in Astronomy.
