The Hunt for Planet BNathaniel Kahn

Is there an alternative to Earth should it become unlivable due to human activity? With the development of the James Webb Telescope, astronomy has a fantastic new tool to study the universe. A special look at the capabilities of this amazing technological instrument as well as the people who operate it. Some female scientists collaborate in the search for a new earth, a search that inevitably also reflects on our place in the universe and the way we treat our earth.
