CFRP (Carbon Fiber Reinforced Plastics) is the ideal material for space based mirror due to its low thermal expansion,
and high specific modulus. To expand the use of CFRP, we investigated the long-term stability of CFRP under humid
environment. CFRP mirror was made as precise as possible by using special class of material and adopting particular
design techniques. Dimensional stability of CFRP mirror was evaluated by nano-scale measurement. The factors which
cause out-of-plane deformation of the mirror is discussed.
