QC 351 A7 no. 17 / The following report was originally prepared by P. N. Slater as a
progress report on a Multi-Spectral Tracking Telescope for the Apollo Applications Program under NASA contract NSR 03-002-066. Since the work is an
outgrowth from investigations supported by other contract funding at the
Optical Sciences Laboratory, the report has been adapted as a Technical
Report for the information of the other sponsors.
The basic design, following the Meinel-Shack three-mirror arrangement,
represents a particularly excellent refinement by R. V. Shack. The extreme
compactness of the design is of benefit to this application, and even
though the central obscuration is large, the modulation transfer function
remains satisfactory for the widely-used reconnaissance films.
--A. B. Meinel
