The NGST Phase Retrieval Camera (PRC) is a portable wavefront sensor useful for optical testing in high-vibration environments. Primary applications of the PRC are testing and experimenting with NGST technology demonstrator mirrors, along with exploring other wavefront sensing and control problems not easily studied using WCT. An overview of the hardware and testing results will be presented.
The Next Generation Space Telescope (NGST) is a major element of NASA's Origins Program.
A telescope simulator was built as part of the Nexus wavefront control testbed, an NGST technology experiment at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center.
