Scientific paper

A wide-field-of-view telescope is being constructed with smart focal plane processors that recognize moving objects in the field-of-view and tracks them with high resolution. The telescope lens is made of concentric blocks of glass viewing a 60 degree field-of-view. Intensified CCD cameras on the focal plane acquire images which are processed by a Datacube image processor. The system views the night sky, extracts the position and intensity of stars, and recognizes and tracks any artificial satellites which move through the field-of-view.
