Abstract

Submillimeter-wave telescope on board S-520-17 was launched on January 23, 1995. The telescope is dedicated for observation of cold dust within Orion molecular cloud. In this paper, a brief description of the telescope system and review through the environmental test, preflight calibration, and flight performance is described. Also discussed in the last section is a development of array detectors for future space mission in far-infrared and submillimeter- wave.
