Scientific paper
A number of studies of large (4 to 16 meter class) ultraviolet and visible space telescopes are underway. Unfortunately the emphasis is on surveys with large fields, studies of the intergalactic medium or imaging of earth-like planets with emphasis on `killer applications'. To date, a full complement of instruments designed to support a balanced astronomy program has not been included. Spectroscopy, especially imaging spectroscopy that takes advantage of angular resolution approaching the diffraction limit of the primary mirror, is treated as an add-on, rather than an integral component in these telescope designs. Studies of specific complex objects whether they be a galaxy, stars within a globular cluster, stars with mass loss, star formation regions or proto-planetary disks, would benefit immensely with an advanced version of the Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph.
