ESD Community Forum
As NASA’s Earth Science Division (ESD) continues the implementation of the Decadal Survey recommendations with development of the Earth System Observatory, ESD leadership will regularly update the community on these activities, the current Program of Record (POR), and other Earth science news in a series of ESD Community Forums.
Access to these public events is available via WebEx. Information on dates, times, and how to connect will be posted here when available.

This landscape of “mountains” and “valleys” speckled with glittering stars is actually the edge of a nearby, young, star-forming region called NGC 3324 in the Carina Nebula. Captured in infrared light by NASA’s new James Webb Space Telescope, this image reveals for the first time previously invisible areas of star birth.
