40" Lightweight Sandwich Mirrors
Customer Feedback
Star testing showed even images that were very nearly the same inside and outside of focus. Using my EZ
tester (ronchi eyepiece) showed nice straight lines and no hint of TDE.
-Dave Chadsey
I just tentatively assembled my 10" F4.7 1/17 PV wavefront mirror in my observatory and watched Jupiter
and the moon last night. Although the air condition was terrible due to middle of rainy season, optical
performance was exactly as I expected! The surface of Jupiter was amazing. Contrast of color was deep
and
details were very sharp...
-Kazuki Yamane
"We tested it at the LMDSS over the weekend. It worked perfectly, nice sharp
stars.
We are very pleased with the result."

Hubble Optic's 1-meter-diameter parabolic mirror reflecting NASA technicians
Alex
Schaeffer (left) and Eric Norris (right) is in one of Goddard’s high-bay facilities. Read more here.
Hubble Optics UL24 and PCO Edge4.2 Gold sCMOS camera, used by NASA's New
Horizons
team, captured the MU69 occultation. Read more here.
"The telescope (Hubble UL24) performed quite well again in Argentina for the MU69 campaign there.
Conditions were fairly poor with quite high winds which are typical of the area. The 24" (UL24)
handled
the winds fairly well with the exception of some extremely strong gusts that hit the telescope
directly.
The combination of the 24" (UL24) and PCO camera is excellent for occultation work. This setup easily
outperforms any other portable occultation setups I know of. It is no worse, or easier, to setup than
a
14" Meade or Celestron telescope, and packs in most pickup trucks or SUV's"

Hubble Optics 40" f/3.3 sandwich mirror is in action at the Leon Mow Dark Sky
Site near Heathcote, Melbourne
“It’s been 6 months now since we had first light on what is Australia’s largest
privately owned telescope. Situated at the ASV’s Leon Mow Dark-Sky Site in a roll off roof
observatory,
2 hours north of Melbourne, the views continue to get better and better since we have learned to
manage
temperature of the interior of the observatory prior to using the telescope. There are a lot of
objects
which have been transformed for me with this aperture, but the stand-out one to date has to be
glimpsing
the globular cluster in NGC253 which forms a loose triangle with the two bright 9th magnitude stars
south of the galaxy core. Thanks Hubble Optics for the chance to experience the views that I and the
ASV
have seen and will see in the future".
