Ground teams have now begun instructing the primary mirror segments and secondary mirror to move from their stowed-for-launch configuration, off of snubbers that kept them snug and safe from rattling from vibration. These movements will take at least ten days, after which engineers can begin the three-month process of aligning the segments to perform as a single mirror.
Has it been confirmed that the heat shields have no issues?L2 insertion burn is done.
Now it's just a matter of focusing the optics and waiting for the instruments to cool down enough.
I haven't seen any news about heat shields recently. But the Where is Webb? page has temperature data, so I assume if there were a problem with the heat shields we'd know about it by now.Has it been confirmed that the heat shields have no issues?
In one of the webcasts, someone mentioned that the temperature reading is more or less consistent with their simulation. I assume the heat shields are OK.Has it been confirmed that the heat shields have no issues?
