James Web Space Telescope returns first images 😀
So the first test images are in. Seems the mirrors are a little more off than they thought the rocket would jostle them around but not to worry as the mirrors have motors to aline them remotely.

I am very excited by this telescope, and I cannot wait to see what images and info it returns. I have high hopes for some beautiful scenes.
