No, it did not. The Subaru has a single large monolithic mirror - the largest in the world at the time of its construction, thought it's now been surpassed by the Large Binocular Telescope in Arizona, which has two large monolithic mirrors, each of which is 20 cm larger than Subaru's.

What telescope was the first to use many mirrors in a honeycomb patter to avoid the difficulties associated with large mirrors?

The Multiple Mirror Telescope (MMT) was the first telescope to use a honeycomb pattern of smaller mirrors to create the effect of a larger mirror. This design helped to minimize some of the difficulties associated with manufacturing and maintaining large, single-piece mirrors.


What telescope was the first to use many mirrors in a honeycomb pattern to avoid the difficulties associated with large mirrors?

The first telescope to use many mirrors in a honeycomb pattern was the Keck Observatory's Keck I telescope, which became operational in 1993. This innovative design employs an array of smaller hexagonal mirrors to create a large effective aperture while reducing the weight and structural challenges associated with a single large mirror. This approach allows for greater flexibility in mirror fabrication and alignment, leading to improved performance in astronomical observations.
