The first engineering images used to help calibrate the mirrors were published earlier this week.  There is a primary mirror "selfie" published with those as well.  It's all over the news, so I won't repeat the articles, but worth a quick Google search and read on NASA's blog.  There is a neat interview video posted, too.  Pretty amazing (and weird) to be part of this every day and see
stuff on mainstream media.  It's surreal.
