We designed and built a novel model of a deployed space telescope which can reliably align its segments to achieve the finest possible resolution. An asymmetric design of both the segment shapes and their pupil locations were tested in simulation and

ISS-TAO is a mission selected for a concept study by NASA, and proposed by GSFC for launch to the International Space Station (ISS) in order to observe transient high-energy astrophysical sources. It is composed of an X-ray Wide-Field Imager (WFI), a

We wish to phase a segmented and sparse telescope in space, employing only wide-band light from an extended object. A stochastic search for the sharpest image lasts up to one day, for a four-segment telescope.

We report on the development of a micromachined silicon deformable mirror (DM) system for the hyper-contrast visible nulling coronagraph architecture designed by the Jet Propulsion Laboratory for NASA's Terrestrial Planet Finding (TPF) mission. The n

The Planetary Imaging Concept Testbed Using a Rocket Experiment (PICTURE 36.225 UG) was designed to directly image the exozodiacal dust disk of ǫ Eridani (K2V, 3.22 pc) down to an inner radius of 1.5 AU. PICTURE carried four key enabling technologie

This paper presents the optical design of the Dilute Aperture Visible Nulling Coronagraph Imaging (DAViNCI). DAViNCI's dilute aperture approach to the TPF-C extra-solar earth-like detection mission reduces cost and technical risk compared to other fi

Embedding solid-state ceramic actuators in a bending style deformable mirror presents unique athermalization challenges when operated at cryogenic temperatures. Approaches to athermally embed actuators in a substrate are presented in this study. Each

DAVINCI is a dilute aperture nulling coronagraph that has the potential of directly detecting an Earth in the habitable zone around ~100 nearby stars. The novel feature of this mission concept is to replace a filled aperture 5-6 meter telescope with

The calibration wavefront system for the Gemini Planet Imager (GPI) will measure the complex wavefront at the apodized pupil and provide slow phase errors to the AO system to mitigate against image plane speckles that would cause a loss in contrast.
