NIRSPEC is the
Near-Infra Red Spectrograph, which is being build by ESA for the JWST, the
James Webb Space Telescope. The NIRSPEC science team supports the NIRSPEC
project scientist, dr. P. Jakobsen, who works at Estec. The NIRSPEC science
team meets 3 times per year in various locations. It consists of
astronomers from European countries, and specialists from Estec and Nasa. The
meetings are usually attended by about 15 persons, and last 2 days. All aspects
relevant to the NIRSPEC are discussed, including general JWST issues, science
programs, etc. It is expected
that the telescope will be launched in 2013. The science team will keep working
until after launch. The next meeting will be held on Feb 28 - Mar 1 in the
