Abstract

Due to the continuous trend towards higher resolution, future large optical missions for both Astronomy and Earth Observation (telescopes, interferometry,...) are facing new challenges in terms of enabling technologies fighting adverse effects linked to the payload size (manufacturing issues, alignment and integration, in-orbit effects,...). We present here an updated overview of our R&D activities in this field as well as perspectives on the way-forward to technological maturity and implementation within future ESA mission concepts.
