Telescope, comprising a spherical primary mirror, with wide field of view and high optical resolution

Telescope with high optical resolution and continuity of the field of view comprising a spherical primary mirror, characterized by the fact

• a) that said telescope is equipped with a wide field of view,
• b) that said telescope is equipped with a system of repartitioning of the field of view,
• c) that said system of repartitioning of the field of view is placed in proximity of the focus of the primary mirror, and is constituted by a secondary mirror composed by n planar reflective surfaces,
• d) that said n planar reflective surfaces are contiguous one to the other and form a continuous multifaceted prismatic reflector, in such a way as to obtain continuity of the field of view over the whole field,
• e) that said n planar reflective surfaces are followed by a corresponding number of optical cameras that form n portions of image in n distinct focal planes,
• f) that said n portions of image are partially overlapping,
• g) that on each n-th focal plane is positioned a collecting and recording element,
• h) that each one of the n facets of the secondary mirror has a rhomboidal shape, and that each one of such rhomboidal facets of said secondary mirror is itself a planar mirror.
