A telescope can be used to enlarge the diameter of a laser beam and limit diffraction spreading. The laser beam is sent through the telescope in opposite the normal direction and can then be projected onto a satellite or the Moon. If this is done with the Otto Struve telescope, producing a 2.10 m diameter beam of 613 nm light, what is the minimum angular spread of the beam?
minimum angular spread:
rad
Neglecting atmospheric effects, what is the size of the spot this beam would make on the Moon, assuming a lunar distance of 3.84×108 m?
