For the first time in human history, the technological reach exists to discover and characterize planets like Earth orbiting stars other than the Sun. A space-based direct imaging mission to ultimately find and characterize other Earths is a long-term priority for space astrophysics (NRC 2010).

For the first time in human history, the technological reach exists to discover and characterize planets like Earth orbiting stars other than the Sun. A space-based direct imaging mission to ultimately find and characterize other Earths is a long-term priority for space astrophysics (NRC 2010). The Exo-Starshade (Exo-S) Science and Technology Definition Team (STDT) is tasked by NASA to study the starshade-telescope mission concept under the "Probe" class of space missions, with a total cost of less than $1B (FY15 dollars). Per the STDT charter, the mission should be ready for a "new start" in 2017, with launch in 2024, and the science must be beyond the expected ground capability at the end of the mission. The Exo-S mission concept study began in May 2013 and will run until the Final Report delivery in January 2015.
