Something Seriously Wrong With James Webb Telescope 1.5 million km away!

A recently posted blog by NASA informs about the glitch in the telescope which states as follows

“This month, while performing calibration by comparing the brightness of the standard stars that have been well-cataloged by other observatories to what Webb’s Mid-Infrared Instrument (MIRI) was receiving. Team members noticed a discrepancy in the data.” And it was found that the MIRI imaging system has an issue as it is not giving as much amount of light as we expected.
