Gravity-sag (G-sag) for large space-based telescopes is a critical error budget element that must be taken in consideration. Absolute characterization of gravity sag provides necessary information when testing light weighted optics so that true optical performance can be determined. A method is presented for characterizing G-sag to obtain the 0-G optical surface.
