Scientific paper

The present conference discusses prospects for astrophysical space observatories in the next 25 years, a two-mirror three-surface telescope, the structural and thermal feasibility of a 10-m primary mirror space telescope, precision machining implications for optical systems with large off-axis elements, optical wavelength aperture-synthesis interferometry, Space Station lidar measurements with 1.5-m reflective optics, and the performance of phased-array and thinned-aperture optical telescopes. Also discussed are the R-theta diamond-turning system for optical surfaces, diamond-turned Cu mirrors at grazing incidence, the use of visible and IR interferometry in optical testing of large single-point diamond-turned mirrors, the performance of a fast diamond-turned two-mirror colimator, and all-reflecting afocal telescopes.
