We discuss the progress that has been made in the understanding of the use of external occulters to observe exoplanetary systems. We show how a starshade can be designed and built in a practical and affordable manner to fully remove starlight and lea

SPIE Proceedings.
Recent studies of exosolar planet detection methods with a space-based visible light coronagraph have shown the feasibility of this approach. However, the telescope optical precision requirements are extremely demanding - a few Angstroms residual wav
