Abstract
The design process for an all-reflective zoom telescope is presented. Special consideration is given to the development of the starting configuration and the subsequent optimization process. The non-traditional optimization route utilized as a result of the unusual pupil characteristics of such an all-reflective zoom system is examined. Results of the design are presented.
