Summary

[edit]
Description

This is John Abraham - he serves as the Deputy Integration & Test Support Systems Manager for the James Webb Space Telescope. He supported the cryogenic vacuum testing at NASA's Johnson Space Center in Houston, Texas. He is also a computer systems engineer.

Here he talks about how we can use software to troubleshoot hardware on orbit.

"The flight software can override whatever the configuration is of the telescope itself. Say a shutter on NIRSpec fails. What we'd do, is we'd actually go in and see if we can fix that without fixing the instrument. So it just ignores the detector altogether, rather than taking the detector information and even trying to process it."
