"Bakich sample pages Chapter 2" (PDF). p. 3. Retrieved 2013-08-01. John Donavan Strong, a young physicist at the California Institute of Technology, was one of the first to coat a mirror with aluminum. He did it by thermal vacuum evaporation. The first mirror he aluminized, in 1932, is the earliest known example of a telescope mirror coated by this technique.
