In the realm of space exploration, there is a notable upsurge in advanced remote imaging systems, particularly in CubeSats, owing to their efficiency and increasing payload capacities. These small satellites now host various mission payloads, significantly enhancing remote sensing capabilities. Optical systems, especially those with reflector optical telescope subsystems, play a pivotal role in improving CubeSat image quality, enabling high-resolution remote sensing. This study delves into the operational mechanisms of these systems, providing examples of CubeSat payloads with detailed technical insights. A key focus is the design and analysis of a reflector optical telescope payload subsystem tailored for CubeSats. Results highlight the subsystem's effectiveness, offering valuable insights into optimizing CubeSat imaging capabilities. Ground analysis further validates its real-world performance. In summary, reflector optical telescope payload subsystem was designed for CubeSats, analysis results were obtained and ground analysis was performed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
