Summary:
In the space business, weight and size are what run up the bills. So imagine the appeal of a telescope thats a tenth to as little as a hundredth as heavy, bulky and power hungry as the conventional instruments that NASA and other government agencies now send into space. Especially alluring is the notion of marrying the time-tested technology called interferometry, used in traditional observatories, with the new industrial field of photonics and its almost unimaginably tiny optical circuits. Say hello to SPIDER, or Segmented Planar Imaging Detector for Electro-optical Reconnaissance.
"Big Dreams for Small SPIDER Scope" is from the August 6, 2016 issue of Science News.
