title = "Space-based camera systems",
abstract = "With 40 years of experience with space instrumentation, I reflect on the rigors of designing cameras for stringent environmental hazards. The fundamental knowledge of optics instilled in me as a student at the Optical Science Center gave me the basis for my career. Jim Wyant is the first name that comes to mind from those formative years in the 70{\textquoteright}s. A decade later, I became an employee of WYKO helping with the phase-shifting interferometers that his company produced. As a final gesture, Jim allowed me to complete my education in 2009 (32 years after my Master{\textquoteright}s degree) as my PhD advisor.",
