Summary | Large optical payloads require precise stabilization - on the order of fractions of a wavelength. The objective of this project is to demonstrate the feasibility of a simple, yet revolutionary, new concept for an that can achieve a very high-order precision in attitude using only low-order precision in control. The aim of this proposal is to thoroughly analyze this concept to determine its practical feasibility. |
