They F’ed up the mirror....again!?
The reason?
NASA thought the general public would be hugely disappointed at the first images.
Good to see that common sense and full disclosure have triumphed over many months of pre-planned silence!
I saw the image on the evening news tonight and was surprised they’d released anything so soon. I look forward to them getting the mirrors aligned and seeing what this telescope can show us.
At least I won’t have to wait as long as I did from New Horizon’s launch to seeing images of Pluto. :-)
Has anyone every thought that the two space telescopes NASA has launched are called the Webb and Hubble?
I’m Dizzy. Do we get a point for that????
I want a refund.
LOL, just kidding. I understand perfectly they are in the process of aligning the mirrors and it’s going to take several more months before they’re there. And when they are, I’m sure Webb is going to be hitting us with some mind-blowing revelations about this old universe we live in on a regular basis. Go get ‘em, NASA! Can’t wait.
Maybe, next time, they could use color film instead of black & white.
