We still can't get over these images 🤩 Ten years after testing of the James Webb Space Telescope began here at NASA’s Johnson Space Center, NASA has released the observatory's first images. We're proud to have played a part in making sure @nasawebb was ready for the frigid environment of space, checking the alignment of the telescope's mirrors, and more. Congrats to the team on these spectacular images! (Link in bio) #UnfoldtheUniverse
