All five sunshield layers on #NASAWebb are fully deployed! 🎉 #UnfoldTheUniverse

#NASAWebb is fully deployed! 🎉 With the successful deployment & latching of our last mirror wing, that's: 50 major deployments, complete. 178 pins, released. 20+ years of work, realized. Next to #UnfoldTheUniverse: traveling out to our orbital destination of Lagrange point 2!

I am currently 18 hrs 12 mins 14 secs of light-travel time from Earth (2022:279:000000:2L)

Max and I had a great time visiting the York Road Project, visiting them and seeing their work is always something I enjoy, but being there for this occasion was even more special. Thanks for having us!
