LEXINGTON, Ky. (January 30, 2026) – Central Appalachia has powered the nation for generations — fueling industry, building cities, and supporting economic growth far beyond the region itself. But as coal and other extractive industries decline, communities across Appalachia are once again facing transition. The question, as many have learned through hard experience, isn’t whether change is coming — it’s whether that change will be just.

Title: Addressing Material Science issues on the way to NASA habitable worlds Observatory and Beyond
Abstract: If the technology is sufficiently matured, NASA's next flagship mission is likely to be the Habitable Worlds Observatory. This observatory for the late ‘30’s will also be capable of far UV Optical measurements.
In conjunction with NASA scientists, BYU's Thin films for Space Optics Research Group has been addressing some of the material science issues important for extending observations into the far UV using characterization tools of the 21st century including spectroscopic ellipsometry, atomic force microscopy and scanning electron microscopy. We have also been doing studies on a potential alternative to the internal coronagraph currently contemplated for the Habex mission.
I will discuss dust, lifetime studies and the cleaning and storage of delicate optics and hygroscopic materials with polymers, including first contact polymer. This presentation is aimed at advanced undergraduate students and beginning graduate students while at the same time reviewing and teaching aspects of optics that may be of interest to all.
