  • Description
    Opportunity:
    Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL), operated by the Lawrence Livermore National Security (LLNS), LLC under contract no. DE-AC52-07NA27344 (Contract 44) with the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), is offering the opportunity to enter into a collaboration to further develop and commercialize its Composite Meter-Class Monolithic Space Telescope.
    Background:
    LLNL developed a solid monolith telescope construction approach (U.S. Patent No. 9720223, IL-12599) that has driven a new paradigm for high-performance, multi-aperture space telescopes at previously unheard-of costs, mainly due to their intrinsic robustness. Unfortunately, solid monoliths mass becomes excessive beyond half-meter aperture, approaching 1000 kg at meter-scale. What is needed is a new construction approach to scale the advantages of solid monolithic telescopes to meter-scale and beyond.
    Description:
    The approach is to use foundational materials science, structural design, thermal analysis, optic fabrication, and space systems engineering, and to use optimize them through large-scale simulation to realize meter-scale telescopes at 10X cost reduction. LLNL-s folded Gregorian design integrates all alignment sensitive components into one static monolithic system. Like solid-monoliths, these composite monoliths eliminate all dynamic degrees of freedom. The entire assembly consists of (1) primary/secondary mirrors, (2) focal plane array, and an integrated Fold-Mirror strut.
    Advantages/Benefits:
    Reduce costs by eliminating risk associated with high sensitivity optomechanical components. Greater robustness and reliability by eliminating high-precision mechanical structures. Reduce SWaP (size, weight and power) factors
    Potential Applications:
    National security Free-space optical communications Astrophysics High-resolution space imageryDevelopment Status:
    Current stage of technology development: TRL 2
    LLNL has filed for patent p...
