This citation summarizes a one-page announcement of technology available for utilization. A new lensless scanning telescope concept was originally developed at Langley Research Center for possible application in a scanning radiometer for a spacecraft. In the spacecraft application, the radiometer would scan at right angles to the line of flight, giving complete coverage from horizon to horizon. Designers of terrestrial optical systems should also be interested in the concept. The desired performance of the new design is good response for 100-km spatial wavelength on the ground at nadir from a spacecraft at 500-km altitude. ...FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: Contact: Tech.
