The telescope that was the first to use many mirrors in a honeycomb pattern to avoid the difficulties associated with large mirrors was the Hubble telescope. The mirror was started by Perkin-Elmer in 1979. Kodak did make a back-up mirror that is now on display at the National Air and Space Museum. The correct answer is A.
