James Garnett, Markus Loose and
Majid Zandian, along with team members from the University of Hawaii, NASA Ames Research Center, NASA Goddard Space Flight Center and the Space Telescope Science Institute, received the
Space Act Award from the NASA Inventions and Contributions Board for developing an extremely sensitive, large-format infrared detector array technology for astronomy for the NASA Ames Research Center. The innovation has dramatically improved focal plane arrays in the 0.6 to 5 micrometer region of the infrared, said Rockwell, which will design and develop this technology for the near-
infrared camera (NIRCam) instrument of NASA's James Webb Space Telescope, the successor to the Hubble Space Telescope.
