NASA's James Webb Space Telescope has successfully passed another series of critical testing milestones on its march to the launch pad. During liftoff, rockets generate extremely powerful vibrations and energetic sound waves that bounce off the ground and nearby buildings and impact the rocket as it makes its way skyward. Technicians and engineers aim to protect Webb from these intense sound waves and vibrations. To simulate these conditions, flight components are intentionally punished with a l
