A8 OREGON East Oregonian Thursday, July 7, 2022 Oregon school will be among fi rst to reveal new NASA telescope images By SHANE HOFFMANN Oregon Capital Bureau WILSONVILLE — An Oregon school will join hundreds of sites across the nation in celebrating the release of the first images from NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope — the most technologically advanced of its kind — at a July 12 event. The event is slated for 3 to 5 p.m. Tuesday, July 12 at Oregon Charter Academy in Wilsonville is open in person to the first 100 registrants and then fi rst 1,000 virtual registrants as well. Those wishing to register can do so at oregoncharter.org/james- webb. Af ter the telescope mission took off on Dec. 25, 2021, it recently reached its destination nearly 1 million miles from Earth. The technology utilized by the telescope allows for the universe to be viewed in infrared and will help give insight into the formation of the universe through the study of light. The July 12 event includes a showing of the recorded NASA broadcast, which highlights the fi rst batch of five images from the tele- Bill Ingalls/NASA The James Webb Space Telescope launches in December 2021. The Oregon Charter Academy in Wilsonville and Oregon Museum of Science and Industry in Portland are among the sites showing the telescope’s fi rst images on Tuesday, July 12, 2022. Losing Your HEARING scope and a slideshow featur- ing information about the telescope and its purpose. Also featured is a Q&A with experts from NASA and an appearance from the University of Oregon’s phys- ics department. The depart- ment will send members to the event and assist attendees in using special-lensed tele- scopes, which allow individu- als to look directly at the sun. The charter academy is the only school and one of just or are your ears just plugged with EARWAX? seven organizations statewide to be selected to participate in the viewing. Dan Vasen, the principal of the academy’s STEM programs and cham- pion of the school’s NASA club, said the school learned of the opportunity through the NASA Express newslet- ter and applied to be one of the organizations to showcase the images. “Igniting interest in STEM is imperative to ORCA,” Vasen said in a statement. “Providing special oppor- tunities through events like these can stimulate the type of learning that creates passion, while at the same time helping students process classroom topics and their relevance to real world appli- cations.” One of the academy’s chief focuses is presenting students with opportunities through enrichment programs such as its three-year-old NASA club, which hosts monthly live streams from NASA space centers to students. The club also provides virtual-reality experiences. In February, a group of nearly 100 academy students and staff watched the Webb Telescope as it reached its fi nal destination. “The NASA club is just one of the many STEM programs at ORCA,” Vasen said. “In an effort to take remote learning to the next level, we’ll be partnering with more space centers next year to increase the number of virtual events and the scope of educational enrichment materials provided to ORCA students.” Other events planned in Oregon Additional organizations in Oregon will be holding activities around the Webb Telescope throughout the summer. Here are a descrip- tion of two, taken from their websites: July 12: OMSI (Port- land): View the fi rst images from the telescope with a live expert NASA panel live via satellite on NASA TV in the planetarium and auditorium beginning at 7:00 a.m. with the fi rst images scheduled at 7:30 a.m. and other events during the day. July 30: Science Works Hands-On Museum (Ashland): This event will feature James Webb exhibits and hands-on projects. To lear n more about the Webb telescope, visit webb.nasa.gov.

Etulain said Hatfield’s Senate papers, which are housed in the library that bears his name at Willa- mette University in Salem, are scheduled to be open to researchers on the 100th anni- versary of Hatfi eld’s birth on Tuesday, July 12. Etulain does not gloss over Hatfi eld’s failings, but says his is “a sympathetic biogra- phy.” “Even after I make allow- ance for his mistakes and where I disagree with his conclusions, I think him a role model for politicians,” he wrote in the preface. Though Hatfield wrote a book a decade before his death — “Against the Grain: Confessions of a Rebel Republican,” published in 2001 — he also said he felt he was not the best judge of his place in history. Other than his 93-year- old widow, Antoinette, most of those in Hatfi eld’s early political circle have died. The most recent on March 13 was Gerry Frank of Salem, the one-time department store owner who led Hatfield’s 1966 Senate campaign and was his Senate chief of staff and special assistant from 1967 to 1992.
