A new collaborative venture into Experimental Astrophysics with Physics led to a brilliant recent hire in Netterfield, who currently specializes in building and deploying balloon-borne telescopes and their associated instrumentation. A second joint position is contemplated here to build on this success. We hope to tap the synergy which arises by close contact with techniques familiar in other branches of physics, particularly experimental subatomic physics, in combination with an intellectual linkage to topical A&A research problems. Exciting possible areas of research include cosmic ray detection, the search for ``dark matter'' candidates, work with the Sudbury Neutrino Observatory, analysis of cosmic specimens with Isotrace, other laboratory astrophysics, etc. (C8R, p. 3: ``The synergistic interaction between DA, CITA, and Physics will continue to be important in the development of astronomy at UT, a fact well acknowledged in the complementary plans developed by all three units.'')
