Optical Guidance Systems Specialty Research

OGS combined a .5 meter Ritchey-Chretien optical system with a high performance mount and a state-of-the-art computerized control system to provide Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory in California with a high-performance testing instrument for completing their successful adaptive optics program.

Optical Guidance Systems provided RC32-smf and RC25-smf rocket tracking telescopes to Lockheed Martin Missiles and Space for a portable containerized imaging laboratory; system engineered by Multitech of Clearwater, Florida.

The Draper Laboratory Prototype Space-based Telescope is constructed of the finest quality materials, such as ULE™ (Ultra Low Expansion) optics and special application Invar truss metering rods.

The University of Michigan 1 Meter Array was custom designed and developed as an alternative to a 40" telescope. The sixteen focal points of this telescope are funneled via fiber optics to a single focal point source used for data analysis and photometric measurement.
