ABSTRACT:
An infrared telescope that has a detector therein that must be cooled to r 20.degree.K in order to function properly is cooled by freezing a pool of liquid cryogen through rapid venting of a chamber containing the cryogen to a low pressure to cause the cryogen to freeze by the pressure of the liquid cryogen being dropped below the fluid triple point pressure. In this way, the frozen pool of liquid cryogen which is in contact with the detector maintains the detector in a cooled and operating range.
