Abstract

The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) Optical Telescope Element has completed its Critical Design Review and is well into fabrication. This paper will summarize efforts to date in the design, manufacturing and planning for integration and testing. This will include a top level summary of mirror performance to date, hardware results, and planning status for the integration and testing program. The future plans for manufacturing, assembly, alignment and testing will also be summarized at a top level.
