Fabry-Perot interferometers have been applied in a focal reducer to observe radiation from atoms and molecules in comets and in the Io torus. Tunable Fabry-Perot interferometers have been used as narrowband filters, and an etalon with fixed airgap in classical arrangement was employed for the measurement of Doppler shifts and for narrow-line photometry.
