  • Abstract
    Cryogenic optical testing and verification the James Webb Space Telescope is one of the biggest challenges in the I&T program. JWST has constructed an incremental verification program for the optical telescope and the integrated science instrument module to ensure compliance and to mitigate the severity of problems on flight hardware.
