[Arianespace launch countdown] Sept. Six. Cinq. Quatre.
Trois. Deux. Un. Allumage. (3,2,1, ignition)
And we have engine start.
And liftoff. Décollage. Lift off!
From a tropical rainforest to the edge of time itself,
James Webb begins a voyage back to the birth of the universe.

Quite a Christmas present for the world’s astronomers
