Gary : I 'll have to dig out the original paper, to refresh my memory on the extremely high specs . Eventually US optical shops improved on our results using ion beam figuring which wasn't matured here yet and did it cheaper , but the the first iteration of LIGO used CSIRO made optics which everyone involved is very proud of . Its not info you will find easily in the history of the LIGO project.
