<egg|anbo|egg> raptop: why are sensor footprints on space telescope focal planes so smol
<raptop> egg|anbo|egg: I know that part of it is that CCDs are smol compared with glass plates. And Spitzer *launched* in 2003
<egg|anbo|egg> raptop: but what is the constraint that makes them smol
<egg|anbo|egg> won’t somebody think of the photons that don’t hit a deteggtor,
* egg|anbo|egg meows at UmbralRaptop

<raptop> Something about difficulties in chip sizes, I think?
egg|anbo|egg has joined #kspacademia
<egg|anbo|egg> hm
<egg|anbo|egg> raptop: so I suppose the smoler ones have higher resolution (and that this all stays clear of the diffraction limit?)
<raptop> AFAIK, not necessarily. More that making bigger chips is harder, so they've historically been small.
<raptop> And back in the videcon area, the detectors were shockingly smol

<mlbaker> you aren't
* raptop may be complaining about the conversation topics in the graduate student unhappy hour again
<raptop> mlbaker: yay
<SnoopJeDi> blegh, getting together to talk about TV?
<UmbralRaptop> ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
<UmbralRaptop> There's also a question of what else to talk about. COVID-19? Current civil unrest/lack of progress in ending racial discrimination? Research? Studying for quals? [REDACTED]?
<SnoopJeDi> yea, I can totally understand why we do it as folks
<WeylandsWings> what is [REDACTED]
<SnoopJeDi> you need CASE NIGHTMARE RAINBOW clearance to talk about it
