    I've been following this on NASA TV Channel the last couple of weeks.

    James Webb Telescope has to perform something like 102 "self-assembly" tasks over the next few months. A real nail biter for the controllers on the ground. Like them, I hope it all go off without a hitch. (Literally)

    Years ago, the stunning images from Hubble were amazing. I'm looking forward seeing the first images from the James Webb Telescope.

    From CNN:
    Telescope reaches its final destination a million miles from Earth
    Hopefully the observations will start soon and we will get many great pictures.
    My inner Mulder wants to believe, but my inner Scully remains skeptical.

    If I understand correctly, they will spend several months calibrating all the equipment first.
