The 2.6 m TIR telescope designed to be carried at balloon altitude and to perform far infrared and millimetric observations is described. The telescope is optimized to search for Cosmic Background Radiation (CBR) anisotropies and faint diffuse mm and FIR sources. Scientific problems involved with this system and technical solutions to such problems are illustrated. Flight experience with a small (1.2 m) prototype (the ARGO 1989 telescope) is described.
