ABSTRACT:
A telescope baffle system is disclosed for use with optical instruments. The baffle structure consists of highly reflective low scatter annular arrays of retro-reflecting cube corners which have the capability of returning rays back upon themselves such that most off-axis radiation striking one of the baffle annular arrays is reflected back to its source rather than being absorbed or scattered by the baffle.
