Notes from call with Evgenya Shkolnik on Monday, July 9, 2018

[gully]

• Detectors are critically important
• TLSE is critically important
• Need to characterize the detector because pointing is so bad
• Si Grisms are a great idea
• IR is tricky due to cooling -> stick to where you don't need to cool, but:
• Cooling could be an interesting tech demo if science demands longer wavelength
• One great experiment and not more than one or two tech demos
• Consider a "Team X" or "Tiger Team" activity where experts review the idea over a day or two
• Telluric absorption is a good reason for space
• Chances are there will be a call for a bigger mission, maybe next fall or later?
