About SAFIR

SAFIR is a proposed NASA space observatory for far-infrared light. The plan calls for a single large mirror 5–10 meters (16–33 ft) in diameter, cryogenically cooled to 5 kelvins. This would feed detector arrays sensitive from 5 to 1000 μm. The possibility of servicing such a telescope in space has been evaluated.
