This poster will show the overall design of the VETA-I and how it was used to meet the Congressional mandate to demonstrate 0.5 arcsec full width half max performance. The largest two mirror elements (P1/H1) were mounted in a metrology mount and actively aligned using x-rays. The entire assembly was surrounded by a thermal enclosure to control the environment of the two mirrors.
