A Brief History of Destiny• Astronomical community recognizes the potential of dark energy space probes.
• NASA & DOE propose a generic Joint Dark Energy Mission
• Initial Destiny concept for JDEM proposed in 2003. Wins initial concept study. LMCO & LANL partners.
• NASA creates general “Beyond Einstein” program for astrophysical missions: Con-X, LISA, CMB probes, etc. Includes JDEM .
• Destiny wins 1 of 3 JDEM concept studies in 2006. NRC BEPAC recommends JDEM for first BE start in 2007.
• Probable JDEM call in September 2008 for 2009 start.

DESTINY Philosophy
• Complete heritage - Well understood technology in a unique configuration.
• Use the minimal instrument required• Do only in space what must be done in space - leverage ground based observations.
• All spectra all the time. Complete spectro- photometric time series on all SN events.
• Highly automated survey - no time critical operations.

Why go to high redshifts?
Dark energy can be detected at low redshift, but precise constraints on the DE Eos requires measurements over both the acceleration and deceleration epochs.

NIR available only in space
Crucial near-infrared observations are impossible from the ground for the required photometric accuracy
• Sky is very bright in NIR: >100x brighter than in visible
• Sky is not transparent in NIR: absorption due to water is very strong and extremely variable
