Abstract
We will discuss the design, specification, construction, and assembly of the 4 mirror systems that make up the Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO) Atmospheric Imaging Array (AIA). We will include the extensive imaging performance measurements made on the mirror throughout the post-polishing mirror processing period.
