After 50 years on the science staff of DAO/HIA/NRC-Herzberg I am now an NRC emeritus, with the same work and contact coordinates.

My principal activities in this role are in future facilities for Canada, as follows:

1. Canadian lead, member of the ISRO UVIT instrument team, and SWG member for the Astrosat observatory. Canada has a 5% share in the observatory
now starting its 7th year in orbit.

2. Team member for the CASTOR space telescope and its proposed international partners, and the ingoing industrial and science contracts towards the mission. 

3. Continuing work with the JWST science team and research projects, since stepping down from being Canadian project scientist. 

4. Involvement in other international teams, committees, and planning groups for space.

5. I continue reduced research activity, but ongoing work on massive stars, X-ray binaries, AGN, and distant universe.
