Description:
We will present an update for the University of Arizona NGST (Next Generation Space Telescope) Mirror System Demonstrator (NMSD). The 2-m, f/5 NMSD mirror uses a 2 mm thick glass substrate and an actuated lightweight structure for surface accuracy and support. We will review the mirror's basic design and summarize the fabrication process. We will also discuss the current results from system integration and testing.
