Very cool. Fantastically wide spectral range of 0.3 micron to 1.5 millimeters wavelength. That's from visible light down to the edge of the mm-wave radar bands. So that's "full band" coverage of infrared, from near IR thru mid, long, and very long IR wavelengths. Perfect for red dwarfs, brown dwarfs, possibly even planets bound to them.
