MELIPAL dummy M2 mirror

The mechanical structure of MELIPAL was tilted towards the horizon for easy access to the M2-Unit, the electro-mechanical support system for the secondary mirror at the top end. After removal of the M2 dummy mirror, the newly coated Beryllium mirror was cautiously mounted on its support.  (This digital photo was obtained on January 20, 2000).
