Abstract

The Institute for Research in Schools (IRIS) helps schools to provide opportunities for their students to undertake original research using existing datasets. This poster shows the results of work on the Webb: Cosmic Mining project, in which students have used data from the Spitzer Space Telescope to identify potential targets for the James Webb Space Telescope. The project was scoped by IRIS in collaboration with the UK Astronomy and Technology Centre.
