Inside NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland, the James Webb Space Telescope team completed the environmental portion of vibration testing on the telescope.
A shaker table subjects satellites like Webb to the vibration that comes from rocket to ensure the spacecraft will survive the ride into space. The new vibration test system simulates the forces the telescope will feel during the launch by vibrating it from five to 100 times per second.
