UmbralRaptop: egg. — but if you want to reuse Spitzer to do IR imaging of Earth, why not 𒀯 𒄷 𒄈𒀭𒁇. — AAAAAA (but for KSP porpoises, yeah)
<egg|laptop|egg>
I wonder what specifically leads to AAAAAA there
<UmbralRaptop>
heating was coming to mind, also earth is rather bright in the IR
<UmbralRaptop>
(okay, earth is bright in a lot of wavelengths)

I should revise the sizes, but something like: probe/glorified engineering camera - large probe/small space telescope - medium space telescope - HST equivalent - fancy large telescope - proposed giant space telescope
<raptop>
Uh, Heschel counts as HST equivalent, medium is ~1 m (maybe a bit less), large proble/small space telescope is ~0.5 m (maybe a bit less)
<raptop>
I also suspect that there's some weirdness were ultra wide FoV instruments drift towards being detectors instead of imagers

<galois>
Acronym already defined! Try !acr -redef:WTF When Taylor Fails
<raptop>
(and then there are of course pushbrooms and things like Pioneer 10/11's imaging polarimeters)
<egg|laptop|egg>
raptop: yeah but see my remark re. scan
<egg|laptop|egg>
can we treat pushbrooms & detectors in the same category, with their inapplicability to other work coming naturally from their characteristics?
<raptop>
I think so
<raptop>
...and for eggstra annoyance, Junocam straddles the imager/pushbroom divide
<egg|laptop|egg>
is FoV+aperture sufficient ?
<egg|laptop|egg>
or will that lead to silliness where you do a sky survey with a pushbroom
<raptop>
I have bad news for you about how eg: the 3C and 4C surveys worked
<raptop>
For that matter, SDSS does a drift scanning thing, so I think the image co-adds end up faking a pushbroom?
<raptop>
So, I guess it's "you can do a sky survey with a pushbroom", but there are tradeoffs
<egg|laptop|egg>
that is good, as long as the parameters modelled capture the tradeoffs
<egg|laptop|egg>
aren’t 3C and 4C radio ?
<raptop>
Yeah
