Finally, science!

 On July 12, the first dataset will be released from the James Webb Space Telescope. NASA is putting together a test set that will highlight the telescope's capabilities; kind of a media kit for the telescope. The goal is to show researchers who might want to buy time on the telescope what it can do.

The first real science schedule hasn't been released (there may still be wrangling going on). But we absolutely have a space telescope and I can't wait to see what questions it asks.
