Naval Research Laboratory - Request for Information (RFI)
Small Satellite Survey Optics
The Naval Research Lab (NRL) is posting a Request for Information (RFI) and seeking potential sources for planning purposes only. This notice is not a formal Request for Proposal (RFP). No awards will be made from the responses to this announcement. The Government will not reimburse any costs associated with the development and submission of materials in response to this request. There is no solicitation available at this time. However, should a requirement materialize, no basis for claims against NRL shall arise as a result of a response to this notice or NRL’s use of such information as either part of our evaluation process or in developing specifications for any subsequent requirement. Inquiries for additional information other than that provided herein will receive no response.
Objective:
Optical space domain awareness (SDA) sensors often face difficult trades between field of view and sensitivity. Detecting objects of interest at significant range requires large effective apertures, but surveillance of unknown or maneuverable objects requires fields of view of at least several degrees. Along with modern large-format detectors and advanced image processing techniques, fast, moderate-to-large aperture space telescopes are required to meet this need.
NRL is interested in optics meeting the below technical parameters suitable for deployment on Evolved Secondary ...
