Scientific paper

The design, construction, and performance of a combined solar telescope and Michelson interferometer for balloon-borne stratospheric far-IR absorption studies are discussed in terms of the relevant parameters and precautions necessary to obtain high resolution radiometrically calibrated spectra of the stratosphere between 20 and 100 kaysers. Preliminary data are presented to indicate that the system performed as designed and provided constituent concentration values for H2O and O3 from measurements of strong absorption lines in this spectrum.
