Patent ID: 8154712

Claim:
A reflective telescope comprising: a first entrance pupil; a second entrance pupil; a primary mirror positioned to directly receive and reflect a first optical beam and a second optical beam that respectively passed through said first entrance pupil and said second entrance pupil; a secondary mirror positioned to directly receive and reflect the first and second optical beams reflected from said primary mirror; a beamsplitter positioned to directly receive and pass the first and second optical beams reflected from said secondary mirror; a tertiary mirror positioned to directly receive and reflect the first and second optical beams that passed through said beamsplitter; an exit pupil; a quaternary mirror positioned to directly receive the first and second optical beams reflected from said tertiary mirror and said quaternary mirror positioned to reflect the first and second optical beams to said exit pupil; a laser positioned to emit a laser beam which is received by at least one optical component and is then received by and reflected from said beamsplitter towards said second mirror positioned to directly receive and reflect the laser beam towards said primary mirror positioned to directly receive, reflect and collimate the laser beam; and a moveable fold mirror that is capable of being moved from a non-bypass mode where said laser is used into a bypass mode where said laser is not used and where said moveable fold mirror when in the bypass mode is positioned to directly receive a third optical beam and a fourth optical beam and said moveable fold mirror positioned to reflect the third optical beam and the fourth optical beam directly to said exit pupil instead of the third optical beam and the fourth optical beam being reflected by said primary mirror, said secondary mirror, said tertiary mirror and said quaternary mirror to said exit pupil.
