Multiband, infrared imager for study of high temperature volcanism on Io
Abstract
We are developing a multiband imager that obtains simultaneous two-dimensional imaging at short-, mid- and long-infrared wavelengths. Moreover, this instrument will deliver non-saturating, wide dynamic range images of transient, rapidly-changing events. These capabilities enable a new range of previously unobtainable high science value planetary observations. In particular, this imager will enable study of high temperature volcanism on Io, Earth, and possibly Venus.
