That is the most critical step still remaining of the deployment steps, everything has worked perfectly so far.&lt;p&gt;What an amazing accomplishment.&lt;p&gt;If you are wondering why the satellite is still moving with 200 m&amp;#x2F;s that is because there is a component that is already out of the plane of the ecliptic which will be conserved to help reduce the amount of fuel required for the orbit insertion, so it won&amp;#x27;t go to &amp;#x27;zero&amp;#x27;. This is a bit confusing, especially because of the language on some of NASA&amp;#x27;s websites where they suggest that the satellite will come to a stop, this is true but only in one axis, the one relative to Earth.&lt;p&gt;In the same vein: Webb hasn&amp;#x27;t really arrived at L2, but at a point almost 800,000 km away from it, perpendicular to the line Earth-L2 (which of course is a moving system itself!). So Webb will be orbiting in a plane perpendicular to Earth-L2 at a very large distance from L2, which guarantees that it will have power (because the solar panels will be continuously in sunlight).&lt;p&gt;Edit: two more hours to go. JWST is still moving at roughly the speed of a commercial airliner (730 km&amp;#x2F;h).&lt;p&gt;Edit: &lt;i&gt;one&lt;/i&gt; more hour to go, and NASA just posted this image to show the orbit in an easy to digest format:&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;jwst.nasa.gov&amp;#x2F;content&amp;#x2F;webbLaunch&amp;#x2F;assets&amp;#x2F;images&amp;#x2F;orbit&amp;#x2F;trajectoryMapping2.41-NoText-1000px.jpg&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;jwst.nasa.gov&amp;#x2F;content&amp;#x2F;webbLaunch&amp;#x2F;assets&amp;#x2F;images&amp;#x2F;orbit...&lt;/a&gt;</text><parent_chain></parent_chain></comment><story><title>Webb’s Journey to L2 Is Nearly Complete</title><url>https://blogs.nasa.gov/webb/2022/01/21/webbs-journey-to-l2-is-nearly-complete/</url></story>
