Podcast: Building the James Webb Space Telescope

Overview When the Webb Telescope takes off for its perch in space, it will be operated by some 200,000 lines of software code. Since a system failure would involve a space shuttle mission to repair, the software needs to be right the first time.

In this podcast, learn why NASA chose an IBM Rational systems development solution to be used by its three international space agency partners in building the Telescope. The solution, which includes quality checks built in at every step, allows NASA to accelerate their software development process.
