Colette Lepage feels 'pride and a sense of relief'
THUNDER BAY — Twenty-three years ago, Colette Lepage graduated from Lakehead University with a degree in chemical engineering.
For years, Lepage managed the large "cleanroom" where much of the James Webb flight hardware was integrated. Now, after seeing the astonishing images it has sent back to Earth, it's almost overwhelming for her to realize what the international team that worked on the project has accomplished. "For me, learning more about the exoplanets is one of the things that's most exciting. What can we learn about planets that are rotating around other stars in our galaxy? I can't wait to see what they come up with."Lepage feels people everywhere should be inspired by the success of this partnership.
