Community activity of Habitable Worlds Observatory: presentation and workshop at the University of Southern California
Year: 2024
Type: conference-paper
Abstract: A community outreach event was hosted at the University of Southern California in collaboration with SEDS-USC (Students for the Exploration and Development of Space) and NASA Goddard Space Flight Center to share the excitement of the mission development of the Habitable Worlds Observatory. The objective of this event was to help students understand the engineering and science collaboration needed for NASA projects. This event is a model for informal educational experience at the university level. This unique workshop brought together astronomy, physics, and engineering students to explore and define trade studies between the possible science objectives and engineering capabilities of HWO. Students were able to connect, learn, and be a part of shaping the future of space exploration.
