In a summary of the High Energy and Neutrino Astronomy splinter group discussions, the question of the composition and spectrum at energies approaching the 'knee' near 10 to the 15th to 10 to the 16th eV is addressed. To compare detector capabilities in a systematic way, trial high energy spectra based on the CRN detector and JACEE measurements are employed to discuss the anticipated event rates and necessary detector sizes. A suggested step-by-step program to measure spectra and composition with spaceborne detectors at energies up to in excess of 10 to the 16th eV is presented.
