The new James Webb Telescope saw its first star on Feb. 11, according to NASA. The still blurry photo will allow the telescope’s segmented mirrors to align and capture never before seen images of our universe. Marcia Reike, a professor of Astronomy at the University of Arizona and member of the Webb team, spoke to the excitement this news brought in a recent press statement,” Reike said. “The entire Webb team is ecstatic at how well the first steps of taking images and aligning the telescope are proceeding. We were so happy to see that light makes its way into [the Near Infrared Camera].”
