[ATM] Some good news about the 110 cm (43.3") Cruxis Telescope project

["Robert Houdart" <robert.houdart@cruxis.be>]

After the set-back with Optical Structures about 5 weeks ago, I have the
pleasure to inform you that Mike Lockwood will take on the challenge to
produce the optics for the Cruxis telescope project.
 
As you probably know, Mike is an experienced and well known amateur
telescope maker (and a frequent contributor to the ATM list) who has
transited into custom, high-quality professional optical work and is
currently building a grinding machine to work on mirrors up to 50" (127
cm). 
 
Check out the project web site for more details about the optics and
other recent updates: http://www.cruxis.com/scope/scope1100.htm .
The actual construction of the telescope should start by the end of this
month.
 
Robert
