Abstract
In certain embodiments, a system may include a sensor platform, a cold shield, and a support system. The sensor platform supports a sensor system. The cold shield allows first radiation to reach the sensor system and prevents second radiation from reaching the sensor system. The support system is coupled to the cold shield and the platform, and supports the cold shield and maintains a separation between the cold shield and the platform.
