We present a method for attaining sub-arcsecond pointing stability during sub-orbital balloon flights, as designed for in the High Altitude Lensing Observatory (HALO) concept. The pointing method presented here has the potential to perform near-space quality optical astronomical imaging at ∼1–2% of the cost of space-based missions. We also discuss an architecture that can achieve sufficient thermo-mechanical...
