Scientific paper

The University of Arizona has built a 2-m lightweight active mirror prototype for the next generation of space telescopes. This paper briefly reviews the mirror's opto-mechanical design, and it describes the three different metrology systems that were used to measure it during the actuation process. We also present a list of lessons learned while working on this project. We conclude by discussing one of the successful projects that has come out of this technology.
