The European Space Agency ATHENA mission is an x-ray observatory that will study the formation of galaxy clusters and the growth of black holes. Due for launch in early 2030s, with adoption planned for 2022, ATHENA will use 600 silicon pore optic mirror modules to create a 2.6 m diameter x-ray mirror.The PANTER x-ray test facility has over 40 years of experience in testing and calibrating x-ray optics. PANTER plays a key part in testing developments of silicon pore optics, manufactured by cosine measurement systems, for the ATHENA mission.In 2020, as part of these developments, an x-ray optic unit comprising two mandrels manufactured by Zeiss was measured at PANTER. This optic was produced as a standard against which the performance of silicon pore optics and of the facilities involved in the fabrication and testing of silicon pore optics can be measured.The paper will provide an overview of the testing carried out at PANTER, and the performance of the optic.
