I am a one meter Ritchey-Chrétien telescope being built for the new College of Arts and Sciences building. Come meet me in 2013!
All of my individual optical pieces are complete! Time to stack them up.

My primary mirror is fully figured - astigmatism free! Still polishing my secondary mirror and still grinding my corrector elements.
