- Wide_Field_Infrared_Survey_Telescope abstract "The Wide Field Infrared Survey Telescope (WFIRST) is a proposed infrared space observatory which was selected by National Research Council committee as the top priority for the next decade of astronomy.The design of WFIRST is based on one of the proposed designs for the Joint Dark Energy Mission between NASA and DOE. WFIRST adds some extra capabilities to the original JDEM proposal, including a search for extra-solar planets using gravitational microlensing. WFIRST will also attempt to detect the nature of dark energy. In its present incarnation, a large fraction of its primary mission will be focused on probing the expansion history of the Universe and the growth of cosmic structure with multiple methods in overlapping redshift ranges, with the goal of precisely measuring the effects of dark energy, the consistency of General Relativity, and the curvature of spacetime.The original design of WFIRST (Design Reference Mission 1), studied in 2011-2012, featured a 1.3 m (4 ft 3 in) diameter unobstructed three-mirror anastigmat telescope.It contained a single instrument, a visible to near-infrared imager/slitless prism spectrometer. In 2012, another possibility emerged: NASA could use a second-hand National Reconnaissance Office telescope to accomplish a mission like the one planned for WFIRST. NRO offered to donate two telescopes, the same size as the Hubble Space Telescope with a wider field of view. This mission concept, called WFIRST-AFTA (Astrophysics Focused Telescope Assets), is being matured by a scientific and technical team; this mission is now the only present NASA plan for the use of the NRO telescopes.The mission will remain in this 'pre-formulation' phase until at least early 2016. The WFIRST-AFTA baseline design now includes a coronagraph to enable the direct imaging of exoplanets.As of March 4, 2014, the President's FY15 budget request includes a line item for WFIRST/AFTA development, including a budget ramp-up consistent with the mid-2020s launch date. The study phase is led by a team at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland. The Project Scientist for WFIRST is Neil Gehrels; the Study Manager is Kevin Grady; the Program Scientist is Dominic Benford; the Program Executive is Lia Lapiana; the Science Definition Team is jointly led by Gehrels and David Spergel.".
