Scientific paper

On 11 May 1988 an important event took place for the development of telescope technology at ESO: the NTT optics was successfully tested at Carl Zeiss, FRG. This means that the three mirrors (primary, secondary and Nasmyth) are finished and within specification. The interferometric data currently available for the primary refer to this mirror on its manufacturing support (see Fig. 1). A further series of tests of the primary is scheduled for 1 July on the actual NTT support in its Gell. Final acceptance will take place in the finished, functioning telescope in La Silla at the beginning of March 1989.
