Kaus, thanks for the technical details.  So, the lens should be extremely sharp in UV focused at infinity!

Unders space conditions yes, as there won't be any Rayleigh scattering there. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rayleigh_scattering

The lens is so rare that this thread seems to be the first to discuss it. How did you find it? Space debris in your garden?

 LOL

The Material and make seem to be a all expenses covered no questions asked design so it could easily have cost 65.000 USD initially...

So I am not satisfied because I like to know your adaption to F bayonet I guess?
