Extremely Large Optical Telescope (ELOT) 2003. In 2003 Skycorp was awarded a DARPA “seedling” contract to develop the concept of a 50 meter in diameter optical diffraction limited telescope. This telescope would be constructed on orbit using expendable vehicles. These vehicles would be especially outfitted to be joined together to make a work environment for the construction of the large telescope. Project feasibility was established during the study and DARPA elevated the effort to a full program, handing it off to the larger aerospace companies. The image below is the size of the telescope alongside the Shuttle.

Skycorp was awarded a contract with NASA Langley to provide a report on Lunar surface systems with commercial enhancements to the NASA Exploration Systems Architecture Study (ESAS) report. Our deliverable to NASA was a 114 page report that detailed the history of lunar surface systems from the 1957 Horizon report to the latest thinking from the NASA H&RT and CE&R studies of 2005-06.
