| Popis: | We developed game-changing concepts for meter(s) class very-wide-field telescopes, spanning three orders of magnitude of the covered field of view. Multiple cameras and monocentric systems: from the Smart Fast Cameras (with a quasi-monocentric aperture), through the FlyEye, toward a MezzoCielo concept (both with a truly monocentric aperture). MezzoCielo (or "half of the sky") is the last developed concept for a new class of telescopes. Such a concept is based on a fully spherical optical surface filled with a low refractive index, and high transparency liquid surrounded by multiple identical cameras. MezzoCielo is capable to reach field of views in the range of ten to twenty thousand square degrees. Comment: 6 pages, 5 figures, to be published in the proceedings of the 2nd ESA NEO and DEBRIS DETECTION CONFERENCE ESA/ESOC, Darmstadt, Germany, 24 - 26 January 2023 |
