JWST

The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) is one of the most exiting space projects there is.
It’s just full of engineering, scientific and political feats.

There once was a great dashboard for the Hayabus-2 mission [Hayabusa in Wikipedia] and I am wondering if there is something similar out there in the internet to track the JWST mission as well.

That’s why I decided to keep track of all the great links and updates I can find regarding the JWST
