The Near Infrared Spectrograph or NIRSpec is the James Webb Space Telescope's camera that uses infrared light to analyze the physical properties and chemical composition of distant galaxies, stars and planets. NIRSpec  was provided by the European Space Agency and built by EADS/Astrium. The instrument traveled from Germany and was off-loaded from a cargo plane at Baltimore's BWI airport on Sept. 20, 2013 for its journey to NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Md. Webb is an international project led by NASA with its partners the European Space Agency and the Canadian Space Agency. Credit: NASA/Chris Gunn.
