Editing First light (astronomy) (section)

==Characteristics==
The first light image is normally of little scientific interest and is of poor quality, since the various telescope elements are yet to be adjusted for optimum efficiency. Despite this, a first light is always a moment of great excitement, both for the people who design and build the telescope and for the astronomical community, who may have anticipated the moment for many years while the telescope was under construction. A well-known and spectacular [[astronomical object]] is usually chosen as a subject.{{citation needed|date=July 2019}}
