Wavytone,

I can't find the link now where I read about it. But it stated mirrors could be built with this material in the future.

Just like this link where they say:

"Researchers at the Department of Energy's Sandia National Laboratories and the University of Kentucky are developing enabling technologies for a new thin-film, ultralight deployable mirror that may be the future of space telescopes and surveillance satellites."
