Direct Multipixel Imaging and Spectroscopy of an Exoplanet with a Solar Gravity Lens Mission

Slava Turyshev NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory We propose to build upon our Phase I study of a mission to the regions outside our solar system, with the objective of conducting direct high-resolution imaging and spectroscopy of a habitable exoplanet by exploiting optical properties of the solar gravitational lens (SGL). A mission to the focal area … Continue reading Direct Multipixel Imaging and Spectroscopy of an Exoplanet with a Solar Gravity Lens Mission
