Refurbishment and Testing of Sunrise III completed! more

Another milestone in the hardware phase of Sunrise achieved! more

High-precision measurements of the optical alignment in the Image Stabilization and Light Distribution unit (ISLiD). more

All mechanical components of the SUSI instrument successfully tested in the thermal vacuum chamber. more

The high-resolution image produced by the 1-m main telescope needs to be stabilized for residual jitter and distributed to the three scientific instruments. This is achieved by the Image Stabilisation and Light Distribution unit (ISLiD). The assembly of ISLiD started now in the clean rooms of MPS. more

The first TV test of the SUSI flight components was successfully completed. The grating mechanism, the scan mirror and the filter wheel performed as expected. more
