Descripción
This paper describes the flight control software of the wave-front correction system that flew on the 2009 science flight of the Sunrise balloon telescope. The software discussed here allowed fully automated operations of the wave-front sensor, communications with the adaptive optics sub-system, the pointing system, the instrument control unit and the main telescope controller. The software was developed using modern object oriented analysis and design techniques, and consists of roughly 13.000 lines of C++ code not counting code written for the on-board communication layer. The software operated error free during the 5.5 day flight.

    Study of basaltic asteroids through their phase curves
    Introduction Classified as type-V, the basaltic asteroids of the Main Belt (MB), for the most part, are connected to Vesta's dynamic family. However, since the discovery of the V-type asteroid (1459) Magnya in the outer MB, several new asteroids have been found in different regions, including V-types from inner regions not belonging to the Vesta

    New Robotic Telescope system progress towards critical design review
    The 4m class New Robotic Telescope (NRT) is an optical facility designed to revolutionize the rapid follow-up and classification of variable and transient objects. The project is at the stage where key systems are progressing through their detailed design phases, which presents a major engineering challenge for all project partners to manage design

    Phase diversity application on the EST MCAO testbench
    Phase Diversity (PD) is a technique widely used to measure and compensate for Non-Common Path Aberrations (NCPA) in optical systems. Beyond its traditional applications, PD has found further uses in solar astrophysics, where it enhances image quality by processing multiple images to correct residual aberrations. In this work, we introduce a
