Abstract
Technology investments made over the past decade by the NASA Earth Science Technology Office (ESTO) have enabled the current mission concept of the Climate Absolute Radiance and Refractivity Observatory (CLARREO) mission. Early investments include the Far-Infrared Spectroscopy of the Troposphere (FIRST) instrument, which today is being used as a testbed to demonstrate new detectors under development. Current investments, aimed at the CLARREO goals of high absolute accuracy and onorbit international measurement standards traceability, include a prototype hyperspectral imager, extended blocked impurity band detectors for far-infrared detection, and a high-accuracy blackbody.
