Newsletter
We are very excited to introduce the inaugural IR SIG newsletter, which we plan to publish every 6 months. This newsletter series will publish news and updates from the infrared community, including science highlights, mission reports and progress, instrument developments, and observatory news.
For future editions, we will solicit content from the community at-large. Please submit your science highlights, technology, mission highlights or milestones and events (conferences and workshops) via this google form or email them directly to the IR SIG leadership council at irsiglc@gmail.com.
