Summary
| Description |
English: Initial imaging of the star HD 84406 by James Webb Space Telescope, after initial alignment, released by NASA on 2022-02-11. At this point, the 18 primary mirror segments are only roughly aligned, so far, and not yet focused. So the image shows 18 blurred copies of the same star. During the following 3 months, the mirrors will be aligned fully, to focus and synchronize their separate images into one complete image. |
