It has to be said, the Webb Space Telescope is a very pretty scope!

What I *really* like about this shot is that you can see the curvature in the mirrors, which is not so obvious in most JWST construction shots! The hexagonal mirrors usually look flat.pic.twitter.com/Vv28aWtGTp
FYI, we've built a model JWST here @PhysicsAtSussex using hexagonal gold mirrors from a local garden supply centre (!), and our thermal camera - we now take it out to local school & public events!pic.twitter.com/o0lyAvV08Q
That’s amazing! We’d love to share more about the public engagement that you’re involved with
