Laser and Imaging Space Tech

Abstract

Develop advanced, long-range, optical technologies such as advanced beam control; beam acquisition, tracking, and pointing; adaptive optics; dual line-of-sight pointing; large, lightweight optics; and optical coatings that support future space-object imaging systems. Assess the vulnerability of satellites to the effects of high-energy laser weapons and update catalogued satellites.
