What sort of research projects will the telescope be involved in?
Suggest one! Here are some that have been mentioned so far by Richard Berry from his paper “Perfect Optics in Orbit” – Synoptic observation of the planets. Whenever the major planets Venus, Mars,Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune are well placed for observation, they will be imaged in color at 10-degree intervals in longitude for one full rotation of the planet once each week. This would mean that recent high-resolution images of every major planet would always be available. Over the course of a decade, these observations would become unique valuable records of activity on the planets. – Extended Object Imaging. Color mosaic imagery of extended objects such as M31, M33, M42, etc., would be taken. These images would soon make the ISS-AT web-site a colorful and interesting place, and the images would quickly find their way into textbooks and other web sites around the world. – Survey of the Messier catalog. All of the Messier objects will be imaged in color at high resolution to provid
