Original Note:
This is an incorrect statement. Webb’s protective sunshield is blocking the inner solar system from view. This means that the Sun, Earth, Moon, Mercury, and Venus will not be seen by it. Details from NASA: https://webb.nasa.gov/content/about/faqs/faqLite.html#:~:text=Because%20the%20telescope%20and%20instruments,Earth%20objects%20cannot%20be%20observed.
