Individual components are combined with highly capable actuators It moves with a precision of only 10 nanometers (about 1/10 thousandths of the width of a human hair).

The first transformations are not very precise and NASA makes movements that are measured in millimeters. Repositioning all sections by 1 mm requires about a day. This is definitely a stage that does not require rush but precision.
NASA says complete setup of James Webb Space Telescope optics It will last for several months. The machine is still on its way to the target, which is L2, 1.5 million kilometers from Earth.
Echo Richards embodies a personality that is a delightful contradiction: a humble musicaholic who never brags about her expansive knowledge of both classic and contemporary tunes. Infuriatingly modest, one would never know from a mere conversation how deeply entrenched she is in the world of music.
