Does anyone know if there is technical data released on this image?
Because the hexagonal artifacts from the mirrors (the main 6 lines coming off of the star) seem really bad. Though it is obviously overexposed, so it might just be intentionally highly over exposed to quantify non-idealities like these artifacts and pointing stability, and under normal exposure/range they wouldn't be visible.

According to the article the team said this test image came out better than expected, which I'll take as a good sign
