  • ARIANE AND ESA ROCK !!! BEST LAUNCHING TEAM FOR A LONG TIME! CAN'T WAIT FOR ARIANE 6 NEXT YEAR!!
  • "Lift off from a tropical forest to the edge of time itself; James Webb begins a voyage back to the birth of the Universe" Chills 🥶🥶🥶
  • I work for the company that built all of the mirror segments, all of the deployment motors and all of the mirror position/focus mechanisms. We wont breathe freely until it is deployed and focused. "343 unfolds to go" and we will be on the edge of our seats for every one!
  • I set my alarm and got up early to watch the launch. It reminded me of being a kid again on Christmas morning so excited to go downstairs to open presents. Congratulations and gratitude to all those who made the JWST happen.

    I love this journalist who’s emotional response to this launch mirrors with many of us feel. I think his name was Chris. What an exciting day for all mankind.
  • I'm traveling for the holidays and miscalculated the time zone difference... Showed up right as the stream ended. Time to watch the replay 😅
