Zusammenfassung:An on-gimbal telescope pointing assembly can comprise a head mirror operable to rotate to adjust an elevation angle of the pointing assembly and an all-reflective telescope operable to rotate to adjust an azimuth angle of the pointing assembly. The all-reflective telescope can comprise a fold mirror defining an output coude path of the all-reflective telescope. The pointing assembly can be operable to rotate about the coude path such that receiving optics can remain fixed while the pointing assembly rotates.
