For the space enthusiasts, NASA have given the latest update.
Some quotes:
- “working better than the most optimistic predictions”; - “aligned as closely as the laws of physics allowed”; - “so far everything we dared" - "optical performance will be able to meet or exceed the science goals the observatory was built to achieve." - “We have the highest resolution infrared images taken from space, ever.”
This is just insanely impressive.
Small adjustments, major progress!
Having completed 2 more mirror alignment steps, #NASAWebb’s optical performance will be able to meet or exceed its science goals. Now that’s good optics! 😉 https://t.co/lGUdT9emkD#UnfoldTheUniverse
