Buch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - This volume presents the proceedings of a workshop jointly sponsored by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) and the Space Telescope Science Institute (STScI), held in Baltimore, Maryland, in September 1989. Titled 'The Next Generation Space Telescope,' the workshop gathered leading experts to discuss the future of space-based astronomical observation. The papers and discussions contained herein explore the potential designs, technologies, and scientific goals for a successor to the Hubble Space Telescope. Key topics include advancements in mirror technology, detector capabilities, and adaptive optics, as well as the scientific questions that a next-generation telescope could address.
