James Webb telescope

Pictures of a model of the James Webb telescope (in reality the mirror has a diameter of 6,5 m) I made last year in the Boerhaave Museum (Leiden). This telescope had just reached its orbit around the Earth. Now the first pictures made with this telescope are published. Just search for James Webb telescope in Google and you will find a huge number of great and overwhelming pictures (with good descriptions)
