We’re excited to announce the successful completion of the Secondary Mirror (M2) Metrology & Polishing Equipment Final Design Review! @UAZOpticalSci has been leading this work since Spring 2025, developing the advanced tools needed to meet the mirror’s demanding optical requirements. At 3.13m & 2000kg, our M2 will be one of the largest convex mirrors ever created!✨ #NSFfunded @nsf 🔗 tmt.org/news/715

#OTD in 1987, astronomers spied a bright flash in a neighboring galaxy. The event, called SN 1987A, remains the closest supernova in over 415 years and is one of the best opportunities to study this type of stellar death. More: go.nasa.gov/3OZhJJW

Another great meeting at #AAS247 thanks to @AAS_Office! It was a pleasure to be part of the #USELTP booth hosted by @NOIRLabAstro, where we had many engaging conversations about the Thirty Meter Telescope. Thanks to everyone who stopped by, whether to catch up on the latest TMT progress or to learn more about its far-reaching scientific capabilities.✨
