System and techniques for discovery and tracking of objects in space

We present a ground-based laser system for searching, ranging, and tracking that actively illuminates small resident space objects (RSOs) in low Earth orbit (LEO) and observes position and transit-time of reflections, enabling orbital custody of most one-to-few centimeter-sized objects. A diode-pumped alkali laser (DPAL) augmented with mode-locking and Q-switching serves as an illuminator and offers exceptionally high spectral brightness due to its output beam's sub-nanosecond pulse duration and picometer-level spectral linewidth. Kilohertz fast-rastering enables interrogations of distinct few-meter-sized sky-patches at megahertz rates. Paired on the observation side with one or more telescopes outfitted with Faraday anomalous dispersion optical filters (FADOFs), image intensifiers, multi-pixel arrays, and nanosecond timing, the combined system could offer nearly background-free discoveries of RSOs every hour, even during daytime. Periodically re-flashing previously discovered objects to maintain orbit custody expends only a small fraction of total observing time.

PendingUS20260210857A1CMOSLuminous intensity
With the invention, the afterglow of a fluorophore can be visualized by observation with a rolling-shutter camera under pulsed illumination. Image sections captured during a dark phase contain only the light emitted by long-lived fluorophores. This enables the imaging acquisition of long-lived fluorescence using inexpensive, widely available CMOS cameras without moving parts and without image intensifiers and without synchronization of camera and pulsed illumination.

This application provides an optical lens structure and an optical device. The optical lens structure includes an objective lens assembly, an image-switching lens assembly, and an eyepiece assembly arranged sequentially from the object side to the image side along the main optical path. It also includes a conversion device and an image-enhancing optical element connected to the conversion device. The conversion device is used to switch the image-enhancing optical element to the main optical path between the objective lens assembly and the image-switching lens assembly when the optical lens structure is in a low-light environment, thereby achieving image enhancement in low-light environments to form a clear image for human observation. Furthermore, in visible light environments, the image-enhancing optical element can be switched out of the main optical path to avoid overexposure and affecting imaging effects if the image-enhancing optical element is in the optical path. This allows the optical lens structure to be used in both low-light and visible light environments without the need for two sets of lenses for different environments, thus simplifying the structure, reducing cost and weight, and improving portability.
