NASA star simulatorA star simulator is described which is capable of simulating a field of three or more stars in response to signals from a computer interface. Star magnitude and spectral output can be manipulated and absolute position measurements can be obtained with the system. The simulator is a single axis system which consists of two assemblies: a light source and filter wheel assembly, and a translation stage assembly. The assemblies are self contained on 60.96 x 60.96 cm breadboards and are connected via three fiber optic cables. A summary of operational modes is provided.
