Delivering a moderately sized optical telescope to the Solar Gravity Lens (≥ 550 AUえーゆー from
the Sun) enables direct, multipixel (megapixel) imaging and high-resolution spectroscopy of …

We examined the solar gravitational lens (SGL) as the means to produce direct high-
resolution, multipixel images of exoplanets. The properties of the SGL are remarkable: it …

Nature has presented us with a very powerful" instrument" that we have yet to explore and
learn to use. This instrument is the Solar Gravitational Lens (SGL), which results from the …

The Solar Gravitational Lens (SGL) allows for major brightness amplification ($\sim 10^{11}
$ at wavelength of $1~\mu $ m) and extreme angular resolution ($\sim10^{-10} $ arcsec) …

Nature offers a powerful instrument that has yet to be explored. It is the Solar Gravitational
Lens (SGL): the gravitational field of the Sun, which has the ability to bend and focus light …

A 1-meter telescope with a coronagraph (with 10-6 suppression) placed in the focal area of
the solar gravitational lens (SGL) can image an exoplanet at the distance up to 100 light …

The solar gravitational lens (SGL) provides a factor of 10 11 amplification for viewing distant
point sources beyond our solar system. As such, it may be used for resolved imaging of …

Resolved images of habitable exoplanets, within tens of parsecs, are of interest for
searching biosignatures such as the" Indian-summer" signal. SETI applications are also …

" Exo-C" is NASAs first community study of a modest aperture space telescope mission that
is optimized for high contrast observations of exoplanetary systems. The mission will be …
