Advanced technology for a lunar astronomical observatorySignificant new technologies are required for three proposed telescopes to be operated on the moon. These technologies are in the areas of contamination/interference control, test and evaluation, manufacturing, construction autonomous operations and maintenance, power and heating/cooling, stable precision structures, optics, parabolic antennas, and communications/control. Telescopes for the lunar surface need to be engineered to operate for long periods with minimal intervention by humans or robots.
