Prism and grating spectrometers have been the defacto devices for spectral mapping and imaging (hereafter referred to as hyperspectra). We have developed a new, hybrid instrument with many superior capabilities, the Digital Array Scanned Interferometer, DASI. The DASI performs the hyperspectral data acquisition in the same way as a grating or prism spectrograph, but retains the substantial advantages of the two-beam (Michelson) interferometer with additional capabilities not possessed by either of the other devices. The DASI is capable of hyperspectral studies in virtually any space or surface environment at any wavelength from below 50 nm to beyond 12 microns with available array detectors. By our efforts, we have defined simple, low cost, no-moving parts DASI's capable of carrying out hyperspectral science measurements for solar system exploration missions, e.g. for martian, asteroid, lunar, or cometary surveys. DASI capabilities can be utilized to minimize cost, weight, power, pointing, and other physical requirements while maximizing the science data return for spectral mapping missions. Our success in the development of DASI's has become and continues to be an important influence on the efforts of the best research groups developing remote sensing instruments for space and other applications.
