We and our partners at L3Harris Technologies and Space Telescope Science Institute have been selected as one of three teams to mature technologies in support of NASA - National Aeronautics and Space Administration’s Habitable Worlds Observatory. A first of its kind telescope, HWO will seek out signs of life beyond our solar system and conduct transformational observations of the universe! 🍃🪐🛰️ Together, the team will conduct a two-year research effort called the Ultra-stable Large Telescope Research and Analysis Program – Critical Technologies (ULTRA-CT). The program is meant to close gaps in the performance of large space telescopes through the advancement of ultra-stable optical systems.

Excited to see this ambitious mission advancing exoplanet observation. Looking forward to the valuable insights it will bring.
Well-deserved.
Impressive growth!
