I made LIGO 2 in a research lab
I am an undergraduate in a research lab for quantum photonics in my university and helping revise a set of optics tutorials. I am designing a new tutorial, which is making this interferometer. It uses a HeNe laser, Keplerian telescope, a cube beam splitter, 2 mirrors, and a short focal length lens to project the image. I spaced the mirrors 15 cm and perpendicular from the beam splitter. You can see the fringes from the light cancelling itself out. Turning the lab lights off made this photo look cool because of the laser glow.
