@Droucasaurus 🥳 Either can we! Webb will unfold, calibrate, and cool its instruments over the next six months. That's when we can expect the first images! — PolitiTweet.org

✅ Milestone achieved. @NASAWebb is safely in space, powered on, and communicating with ground controllers. The space telescope is now on its way to #UnfoldTheUniverse at its final destination one million miles (1.5 million km) away from Earth. https://t.co/gqICd0Xojz — PolitiTweet.org

Here it is: humanity’s final look at @NASAWebb as it heads into deep space to answer our biggest questions. Alone in the vastness of space, Webb will soon begin an approximately two-week process to deploy its antennas, mirrors, and sunshield. #UnfoldTheUniverse https://t.co/DErMXJhNQd — PolitiTweet.org

@Shilpaa30thakur Webb will look back 13.5 billion years at the first galaxies that formed about 200 million years after the Big Bang. We hope to get answers about the formation of the universe, but perhaps one of the most incredible things is that we don't yet know what it will discover! — PolitiTweet.org

We have LIFTOFF of the @NASAWebb Space Telescope! At 7:20am ET (12:20 UTC), the beginning of a new, exciting decade of science climbed to the sky. Webb’s mission to #UnfoldTheUniverse will change our understanding of space as we know it. https://t.co/Al8Wi5c0K6 — PolitiTweet.org

NASA @NASA

@certifiedpiglet Sort of! Since it takes about two weeks to unfold and 29 days to reach its final destination one million miles away – Lagrange Point 2, 1 million miles away – we call this phase "29 days on the edge." Here's more on that: https://t.co/6ouqi2Ei4b — PolitiTweet.org

@kxruki The mirror segments are covered in pure gold to help them better reflect infrared light. Here's more on the lightweight beryllium mirrors: https://t.co/6eUrI3tOFQ https://t.co/lZd0qBiGYr — PolitiTweet.org

@destiny_thememe Great question! Webb will have to cool down and calibrate its instruments for about six months before we get first images back. Here's everything you need to know! https://t.co/xQsKn43r2c — PolitiTweet.org

NASA @NASA

@DocPitmaster Thank you! Webb will take about two weeks to unfold all its instruments, mirrors, and sunshield, while reaching its destination in about 29 days. We'll get first images about six months later after it cools down and gets calibrated! Here's more: https://t.co/H2wy0mtQav https://t.co/Qw6Rk0tjSp — PolitiTweet.org
