The Stratospheric InfraRed Interferometer Spectrometer (SIRIS) was a balloon-borne passive spectrometer developed at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC). It measured thermal emissions within the 5-15 μm spectral range to improve understanding of ozone behavior in the stratosphere. It had a vertical resolution of 3 km and could reach a vertical coverage of up to 40 km. SIRIS featured a field of view of 0.5 degrees and a scan time of 76 seconds. While primarily used on balloon platforms, it occasionally operated on ground-based platforms.
