It’s not just you. I worked at JPL for twelve years and I expected it to fail too. I can’t tell you how happy it makes me to be wrong about this.

- mstipetic 5y agoWhy did you expect it to fail? You have some inside info about the problems they were facing?
- lisper 5y agoNo specific inside info. But seeing how the sausage is made makes it amazing that anything they do works at all, let alone that it so often works as well as it does. I was particularly primed to expect JWST to fail because I lived through the Galileo antenna failure and the Hubble mirror fiasco.
