Webb Telescope's NIRSpec Instrument Arrives at NASA Goddard Space Flight Center B-roll

The Near-Infrared Spectrograph (NIRSpec) is a near infrared multi-object dispersive spectrograph capable of simultaneously observing more than 100 sources over a field-of-view (FOV) larger than 3' x 3'. The NIRSpec will be the first spectrograph in space that has this capability.

NIRSpec is being built for the European Space Agency (ESA) by the Astrium consortium.
