Details: 

Lili Alderson will discuss the importance of obtaining multi-wavelength observations for understanding the atmospheres of transiting exoplanets. Through some hallmark exoplanets, we'll take a look at what has been achieved so far with HST, recent developments with JWST, and what both telescopes will bring to the future of atmospheric characterization.
