Dr. John C. Mather is a Nobel Prize-winning NASA astrophysicist and one of the most influential scientists in modern cosmology. His Nobel winning work on the COBE satellite proved that the afterglow of the Big Bang has the exact thermal signature predicted by theory, providing the strongest evidence ever measured for the universe's origin. He spent nearly 30 years as Senior Project Scientist for the James Webb Space Telescope. Time magazine listed him among the 100 Most Influential People in the World. He was the first NASA employee to receive the Nobel Prize in Physics.
We reflect on his early life and remarkable NASA career, how COBE's ingenious null measurement confirmed the universe's origin to within 50 parts per million, the beautiful science being done with JWST in the search for life on other worlds, and his boldest work yet: ORCAS and HOEE — hybrid observatory concepts that pair orbiting starshades and laser-equipped satellites with the largest ground telescopes on Earth.
