The development of high optical quality light weight mirrors would have a great benefit in application areas where mass constraints and imaging performance are important, for example aeroplane or satellite camera systems. Carbon fibre composite (CFC) is a solution for passive and active lightweight mirrors due to its material properties of high strength, low mass and thermal expansion. This paper gives details a programme on the production of an active carbon fibre composite mirror. The design and finite element analysis (FEA) modelled performance parameters are presented along with initial production tests on a 27cm diameter passive test mirror.
