Abstract
Spaceborne sensors for today's technology requirements must meet stringent specifications with regard to faint object detection and observation. The optical designer is faced with the challenge of furnishing a design that is fast and well corrected, has wide field coverage, and can be used to view faint objects when bright sources, such as the sun or the sunlit earth, are just out of the sensor field of view.
