I even talked
to a guy at McDonald Observatory

That was a good idea. They should have had the info since they use the
reflector.


ok, next step is to look, which Apollo contactor or sub-contractor
ACTUALLY MADE the reflectors - and look up THEIR archives.

Did that too, it was the bendix corporation, so far none of the
microfiche I could lay my hands on have been helpful. So my next step
has been to e-mail the PI of that experiment (Dr. Carroll Alley from
University of Maryland College Park) but I am not sure if he is
retired or not( sources:
http://ecolloq.gsfc.nasa.gov/archive...nce.alley.html
). If any of you has a different lead I am a taker.

Not of blueprint quality, but IIRC, around the time the mission went up Sci
Am had photos of them on the cover, and diagrams of them inside. Other
contemporary technical publications (AWST?) may have many details.
