ABSTRACT:
A telescope (A) for viewing high frequency radiation. This telescope has a long focal length with a selection of magnifications despite a short housing (20). Light enters the telescope and is reflected by the telescope's primary optical system (10) and (12) to one of several secondary mirrors (14) at different locations on a movable frame (40). The secondary mirrors (14) have varying degrees of magnification and select narrow spectral slices of the incident radiation. Thus, both the magnification and effective focal length field of view and wavelength can be altered by repositioning moving frame (40).
