The Hardin County Astronomy Club is hosting a "First Light" viewing event on Tuesday, July 12 to celebrate that day’s unveiling of the first images captured by the James Webb Space Telescope.
The event begins at 5:00 p.m. in the Veterans Meeting Hall at the courthouse in Kenton, and all are welcome to attend.
The telescope was launched in December last year and spent 30-days traveling to its permanent observing location, approximately one million miles from Earth. NASA's Webb Telescope team has spent the past several months running tests and calibrating the telescope's instrumentation.
