The Integrated Science Instrument Module (ISIM) houses the four instruments of the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST). After having spent 116 days in a space-like environment for testing, the ISIM, fitted with all four instruments, is being lifted by crane from the thermal vacuum chamber at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland.
