    Get ready for 's final unfolding! We'll have live coverage on social media and NASA TV as Webb deploys its second and final primary mirror wing, with our broadcast beginning no earlier than 9am ET (14:00 UTC) Sat., Jan. 8:

    Webb's iconic honeycomb-shaped mirror, composed of 18 hexagonal mirrors, sits in a giant white clean room in a processing facility. The gold coating reflects the thick crane beams on the ceiling. In the center of the mirror is the blunt cone-shaped instrument that will collect light reflected from its secondary mirror that will sit 24 feet across from the primary mirror and will be attached to booms extending from the sides.

    Nope, we’re not just winging it! But we did successfully deploy and latch the first of our two primary mirror wings. 😎 These side panels, folded back for launch, each hold 3 of Webb’s 18 mirror segments. Next up: our final wing!
