Using a Starshade with WFIRSTA starshade operating with WFIRST at Earth-Sun L2 can characterize Earthlike exoplanets. A starshade can launch together with WFIRST via EELV with standard 5m launch fairings. A starshade experiment requires no telescope modification and limited instrumentation. Implementation requirements are all realistically achievable. Key performance parameters are being verified via NASA TDEMs (ROSES NRA)
