I wonder how such topic is still absent on this forum, nevertheless...

JWST - the greatest space telescope we have ever created has already been surfing space for more than a month. 20+ years were needed to create this mastepiece.

The Webb Telescope has already reached its destination - Lagrange point 2, the orbital point where it is going to observe the most distant corners of Universe, revealing the birth of galaxies, stars and looking for planets to live on.

Useful links are all below:

@KevinHall26,
JWST has found its first target, a star HD84406. It is perfect for JWST first try.
