This month's program will feature Nanette Benoit, with an
update to the WISE (Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer) mission; we may get to see some of the unused telescope parts
for "show and tell"! Also, we'll take a tour of the electromagnetic spectrum,
showing how different instruments, including our own eyes, see the universe. If
time allows we will also talk about the SDO -- Solar Dynamic Observatory -- that
just launched last month, and hopefully see some first images from that mission.
