James Webb telescope launched and deployed
Oh what wonders the glorious United States of America brings to the pissants cheering its demise.

I visited a Northrop Grumman contractor of JW in Los Angeles, and saw early stages of the telescope, before I relocated to Thailand 15 years ago. It's been a long time in the works. Meanwhile, never ending critics of America have brought us ... nothing.

This is a fantastic development. The U.S.A. has expanded the Universe for mankind.
You only pass through this life once, you don't come back for an encore.

Do they know if it works properly yet?

No. Let's hope they do not have to send up a pair of spectacles for it as with Hubble.

NASA led the way but it was a collaborative effort that included contributions from the European Space Agency and the Canadian Space Agency. A truly significant accomplishment.

Re: James Webb telescope launched and deployed
There really are some smart bastards in the world. To get something like this into operation, like all previous space launches, it certainly takes some close to genius level of thinking and engineering to achieve.
There will always be the half glass empty doubting Thomas’s with negative commentary with the usual, cost to much, will it ever work attitude, but, this type of work is in my opinion such a positive for the inevitable advancement of human mental development.

Is the James Webb telescope a political sham? I think not.
