For orbiting astronomical telescopes and for spectroscopic studies from rocket and balloon-borne platforms the great angular dispersion of the Fabry-Pérot interferometer should permit easier guidance tolerance for a given spectral resolving power with the added profit of the physical compactness of an etalon spectrometer or spectrograph. In addition, the superiority in luminosity and illumination of the interferometer permits shorter exposures and greater time resolution.
