PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To solve the problem that a spatial and temporal resolution of a weather forecast value is not sufficient in determining whether or not an artificial satellite, debris, etc., can be observed by an optical telescope.SOLUTION: An observation plan creation support device for an optical telescope includes: a telescope data storage part 11 for storing telescope data 21 including an installation place of an optical telescope 1, and maximum observable range data 24 which determines a maximum observable range 23 of the optical telescope; a predicted trajectory storage part 12 for storing a predicted trajectory 10 including an altitude for each observation object candidate 9; an unobservable range determination part 13 for determining an unobservable range 22 of the optical telescope 1 from data 6 on a situation of the sky over the telescope indicating a situation in the sky over the optical telescope, which is input from the outside; an observable range determination part 14 for determining an observable range 9 which can be observed by the optical telescope 1 from the maximum observable range data 24 and the unobservable range 22; and an observation propriety determination image creation part for creating an observation propriety determination image 8 which is an image superimposing the observable range 9 and the predicted trajectory 10.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 2

【課題】気象予報値の空間および時間の分解能は、光学望遠鏡で人工衛星、デブリなどを観測できるかどうか判断する上で、十分ではない。【解決手段】光学望遠鏡１の設置場所、光学望遠鏡の最大観測可能範囲２３を決めるデータである最大観測可能範囲データ２４を含む望遠鏡データ２１を記憶する望遠鏡データ記憶部１１と、高度を含む予測軌道１０を観測対象物候補９ごとに記憶する予測軌道記憶部１２と、外部から入力される光学望遠鏡の上空の状況を示す望遠鏡上空状況データ６から光学望遠鏡１の観測不可範囲２２を決める観測不可範囲決定部１３と、最大観測可能範囲データ２４および観測不可範囲２２から光学望遠鏡１で観測可能な範囲である観測可能範囲９を決める観測可能範囲決定部１４と、観測可能範囲９と予測軌道１０とを重ね合わせた画像である観測可否判断画像８を生成する観測可否判断画像生成部とを備えた。【選択図】図２
