The atmospheric radiance is collected by the front-end optics (mainly steering mirrors and a telescope) and directed to the Michelson interferometer which allows to measure broadband spectra with a very good spectral resolution. The second input port to the interferometer is closed with a cold blackbody to suppress disturbing radiance. 3, record 1, English, - atmospheric%20radiance
