Click to edit Master title styleStarshade Basics
PRO: Contrast and IWA decoupled from telescope aperture size
PRO: No outer working angle
PRO: Few reflections = high throughput, broad wavelength bandpass
PRO: Starlight does NOT enter telescope
High quality telescope not required, wavefront correction unnecessary
CON? Retargeting requires long starshade slews (days to weeks)

http://www.jpl.nasa.gov/habex/
One of four mission concepts under study for 2020
Decadal Survey
Four concepts under study, reports due 2019
Hab-Ex focus is on habitable worlds
Chairs Sara Seager, Scott Gaudi, managed by JPL
