SEVIRI Mirror Design for MSG-1: Optical Innovation in Spacecraft Instrumentation

The SEVIRI mirror, manufactured by Zeiss, is a key component of the Spinning Enhanced Visible and Infrared Imager aboard the MSG-1 satellite. Utilizing Zerodur material, this lightweight flat folding mirror (830 x 530 x 67 mm, 15.6 kg) supports optimal optical performance while adhering to stringent packaging requirements. Its innovative design minimizes vignetting and enhances light collection, essential for accurate meteorological data collection in space. For detailed insights into its construction and mounting features, visit the Schott publication.
