Paper Abstract
The James Webb Space Telescope Optical Telescope Element (OTE) and Integrated Science Instrument Module (ISIM)
are integrated together to form the OTIS. Once integrated, the OTIS undergoes primary mirror center of curvature
optical tests, electrical and operational tests, acoustics and vibration testing at the Goddard Space Flight Center before
being shipped to the Johnson Space Center for cryogenic optical testing of the OTIS. In preparation for the cryogenic
optical testing, the JWST project has built a Pathfinder telescope and has completed two Optical Ground System
Equipment (OGSE) cryogenic optical tests with the Pathfinder. In this paper, we will summarize optical test results to
date and status the final Pathfinder test and the OTIS integration and environmental test preparations.
