The application of tabular grain emulsions in monochrome low light level astronomical photography is discussed. The speed gain of a mixed halide, e.g., an iodobromide IIIa emulsion, would be useful, and mixed halides may eliminate microspots. Tabular grain technology allows a large increase in blue sensitivity, and this advantage could be extended to V and R bands. The high surface area of tabular grains should favor rapid and efficient hydrogen hypering, but emulsions must be designed to assure ready access of hydrogen to all grains equally. Development of a J or O dye-sensitized emulsion with hypered speed no slower than IIIa-J but with gamma D=1 of 5 to 7 is advocated.
