Re: [ATM] Draper mirror

Hi Francis,

That story from visiting Draper museum was excellent. Thank you very much.
Even greater is your idea to reexamine his historic mirror.

>I asked if I could borrow it to test under a double pass autocollimator.

Due to recent contributions to the list particularly Dale Eason great 
article
http://home.comcast.net/~doeason/Surface_images.pdf
 I think that great service will be accomplished if Dale
will repeat this  interferometric work on Draper's 15.5".
If  Board of Directors will grant their permission of course.
Such report including  your autocollimation test could be valuable 
contribution to
the museum exhibition not to mention ATM community.

Francis, Dale, what do you think?

Regards
Vladimir.
