Abstract
An unobscured five-mirror afocal telescope includes an aperture configured to direct electromagnetic radiation to first, second, third, fourth and fifth mirrors, each configured to receive electromagnetic radiation and reflect electromagnetic radiation along a beam path. The five mirrors are arranged to sequentially reflect from one another electromagnetic radiation received via the aperture to produce a collimated output beam of the electromagnetic radiation at an exit pupil, with the five mirrors consisting of a three-element objective and a two-element eyepiece. A beam splitter may be disposed between the first mirror and the second mirror to direct short-wavelength electromagnetic radiation toward a device along a separate path.
