A General Purpose Astronomy Small Satellite: An approach to low-cost space telescope design using space-qualified ground telescopes
The General Purpose Astronomy - Small Satellite (GPA-SS) project studied the feasibility of developing a useful space telescope with a cost to launch below $100 million. An optical telescope assembly (OTA) designed for ground use is proposed for use in a space mission in order to take advantage of t...
