Behind the Webb: Wax On, Wax Off
The making of the Webb Space Telescope's mirrors is a complex process. Each surface must be precisely shaped to capture and direct the maximum amount of light to the telescope's detectors.

"Behind the Webb" is an ongoing series that follows the construction of the Webb Space Telescope, Hubble's successor. Find more episodes at Hubblesite.org.
