Progress in the area of precision segmented reflectors (PSR) for space applications has been driven by panel development activities. A number of small to medium size panels have been fabricated to demonstrate feasibility. The primary emphasis to date has been on making the panels lightweight and with high precision surfaces. In this paper, information on PSR panel material requirements, as well as, test data on state-of-the-art materials are presented. In addition, potential candidate alternate materials and progress toward their development are discussed.
