Multiple-angle input optic for satellite UV-Vis NIR remote sensing for climatic studies

The satellite remote-sensing instruments for climatic studies are required to have: i) fast time sampling, ii) high spectral resolution, iii) high space resolution, iv) wide field of view, v) broad spectral range, vi) simultaneous measurements in different spectral intervals and/or type of measurements vii) lack of movable mechanical parts, etc. Here it is described the main idea of an input optic of remote sensing UV-VIS-IR instrument aimed for climatic studies form the space. It is attempted with the proposed optical system to satisfy requirements ii), vi), v), vii) and, at least partially, the rest ones.
