The second 10m-diameter telescope of the CANGAROO-I I I project was completed in December 2002. The reflector is a tessellated parab oloid which consists of 114 spherical mirror segments with a f/d ratio of 0.8. In order to obtain light-weight, durable segments, we have been working on development of FRP (Fib er Reinforced Plastic) composite mirrors since 1995. These segments are all equipp ed with a remote-control alignment system and their optical axes were aligned using bright stars as standard light sources.
