Research abstract
NICHOLS RESEARCH CORPORATION PROPOSES TO INVESTIGATE THE MISSION REQUIREMENTS AND THE RESULTING UV SENSOR REQUIREMENTS FOR A SPACE SURVEILLANCE SYSTEM. FROM THESE, WE PROPOSE TO DERIVE THE OPTICAL REQUIREMENTS. THE OBJECTIVE OF THIS TOPIC IS TO PRODUCE AT LEAST ONE SPECIFICATION FOR A SPACE QUALIFIED UV OPTICAL TELESCOPE. THE WORK PLAN IS LAID OUT TO FOLLOW THESE STEPS IN LOGICAL ORDER. IN PHASE II WE WOULD PROPOSE TO FABRICATE AND TEST A SCALED-DOWN VERSION OF THE OPTICS WHICH COULD BE USED IN A FOLLOW-ON UV TARGET/BACKGROUND MEASURMENTS PROGRAM.
