At this point, pretty much all that's left is travelling the rest of the way to its orbit, a burn of Webb's rocket to insert it into a stable L2 orbit, and then several months of testing & calibrating the mirrors.

If all goes well, I think the fist images are supposed to be coming back in about six months.

Yeah, me too. The night before it launched, I had a vivid dream that the rocket blew up shortly after launch.

Was pretty pissed off until I woke up, then pretty worried watching the launch live.
