Open publisher page 0 citations

Abstract

The paper addresses the problem of designing telescopes to perform astronomical observations from earth orbit and the problem of integrating such ' instruments into manned spacecraft. This material is organized into three sections: (1) a discussion of observations and their instrumentation, (2) a discussion of the advantages and disadvantages of manned operation, and ( 3 ) the presentation of a system methadology for designing these instruments for manned spacecraft.
