I toured the mirror lab on October 22, 2026. It is definitely a great and one of a kind experience. As an engineer I was eager to hear and learn how these mirror will be manufactured - and it is the best way to hear and see it by the manufacturer of the world’s largest telescope mirrors! The tour team consisted of three amazing young students with an astonishing knowledge! Good job Adrian, Sage and Shruti!! I’ll do this trout again for sure. Thanks Werner Melinz

Visited for the tour and like previous reviewers, was blown away by both the facility/operations and the two leading our tour, Aaron and Andrew. Super interesting introductory presentation followed by a short walk to view the action in person. A stellar experience AND I learned A TON. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

The explanations and tour were so incredible. To see what is involved in the creation of a mirror array left me with so many questions and a feeling of wonderment. To see the images captures by them were astounding (a wall of galaxies, some of which fit into the space of my thumbnail). A humbling experience. The 2 staff that led the tour (Aaron and Sage) were so good to talk to and learn from. And thank you so much Miriam for offering me this tour: Very special. Zay gezunt
