METHOD AND DEVICE FOR CORRECTING THERMO-ELASTIC EFFECTS, IN PARTICULAR FOR SPATIAL TELESCOPE

摘要

A method for correcting the thermoelastic effects for a telescope embedded in a space satellite on telescope performance parameters, characterized in that it comprises a step of prior determination of the correction of the thermoelastic effects (401) defining a model prior to changes in the orbital-scale thermoelastic effects based on the knowledge of spatial satellite programming data (41), the method further comprising a correction step (403), establishing control messages of means; correction device acting on said telescope. The invention also relates to a device implementing such a method.
