SPHEREx Gets Sylvia A. Earle Award For Exploration Excellence

Keith’s note: The Explorers Club has issued its annual ECAD award. Among them is the enormously cool Sylvia A. Earle Award For Exploration Excellence which is going to the NASA SPHEREx Mission Team: “Jamie Bock, Principal Investigator Olivier Doré, Project Scientist John Wisniewski, Program Scientist – This NASA space mission team is recognized for its outstanding contributions to astrophysical exploration and for advancing our understanding of the cosmos through groundbreaking instrumentation and survey design — completing the first infrared map of the entire sky in 102 colors. Formerly our Citation of Merit, freshly re-named in honor of the 1996 Explorers Club Medalist and living legend, Dr. Sylvia A. Earle.”
