TL;DR: In this paper , the authors characterize the actual science performance of the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), as determined from the six month commissioning period, with an emphasis on differences from pre-launch expectations.

TL;DR: In this paper , a Wavefront Sensing and Controls (WFSC) process was executed to adjust each of these optical elements in order to correct the deployment errors and produce diffraction-limited images across the entire science field.

TL;DR: In this paper , the authors discuss the entire OTE commissioning from deployment through alignment including a discussion of results and lessons learned, as well as the results of the deployment and alignment of the 18 primary mirror segments and the secondary mirror.

TL;DR: The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) as discussed by the authors is a large, infrared space telescope that has recently started its science program which will enable breakthroughs in astrophysics and planetary science.
