The Legacy of the Great Observatories: Panchromatic Coverage as a Strategic Goal for NASA Astrophysics
·
Abstract
Multi-wavelength observations are crucial for understanding astrophysical phenomena and have fueled rapid progress. To maintain continued access to wavelength regimes that are either inaccessible or compromised from the ground, we recommend that NASA establish a strategic goal of maintaining commensurate and concurrent panchromatic coverage.
