Abstract

The simulation results of zones of visibility of celestial bodies potentially dangerous for a wide-field orbital telescope taking into account the basic parameters of the detector, telescope, and movement of celestial bodies are presented. Visibility zones of 50–300 m of dangerous celestial bodies 7–60 days prior to their possible collision with the Earth are calculated using telescopes with apertures of 0.4, 0.75 (VT-77), and 1.5 m.
