Time-lapse video showing NASA engineers moving the Webb telescope Optical Telescope and Integrated Science segment of the spacecraft from its assembly stand to the spacecraft rollover fixture and tilting the spacecraft vertically.

Recently, in the giant clean room at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland, engineers gave the James Webb Space Telescope a "lift and tilt" during testing making it appear to strike a pose in this time lapse video. Featured in this video is Webb's combined telescope and science instrument package.
