Even the Webb telescope’s engineering test images manage to wow

[smp]

From Ars Technica:
"On Wednesday evening NASA released a "test" image from the telescope that suggests the forthcoming scientific images and data will be spectacular. The release of the test photo, which NASA casually says is "among the deepest images of the Universe ever taken," almost feels like a flex because it is so good for a throw-away engineering image."

Hi Stephen. Wow, that is one great engineering test shot from the JWST demonstrating the tracking accuracy over 8 days! Thanks for finding and sharing this exciting link on here Stephen and in 5 more days we should really be seeing some amazing images.
