- Author contribution statement
- I was a Co-I on the SPACEKIDS project and acted as technical manager for the programme throughout. I led the definition of the detector requirements for Earth observation applications, and co-led the astrophysical and instrument modelling activity which was used to specify all data in Section 2 and Tables 1 and 2. I contributed to the design and modelling of the sub-mm experimental system detailed in Section 4.2, and critically reviewed the experimental test procedures prior to implementation. Finally, I contributed to the roadmap for space qualification, outlined in Section 6.2.
