Abstract. This paper describes the status of NASA s Space Infrared Telescope Facility (SIRTF) program. SIRTF will be a cryogenicaily cooled observatory for infrared astronomy from space and is planned for launch early in t next decade. It will be the first cryogenic space observatory to make extensive use of the powerfrd infrared detector array tednology discussed at this conference. We summarise a newly developed SIRTF mission concept and show how the availability of detector arrays has shaped the scientific rationale for SIRTF, and how the arrays themsdves have become part of the definition of the SIRTF misaon.
