Platform considerations
- Can we put a mirror larger than 4m on the Blanco / Mayall ?
- Can we built this mirror, what is its exact size, how does it move around the mayall, how do we aluminse it?
- What does the secondary look like and how can we hold it?
- What does the corrector look like and how can we build it?
- What are the restrictions that this design places on the rest of the instrument?
- How many positioners will be there be on the focal plane? how many spectrographs and where do they go? What does the fiber system look like?
