Introduction

A consortium of institutions - Boston University, Scientific Solutions Inc., HAO NCAR, and MIT Haystack Observatory - are planning to re-establish the optical aeronomical research effort at Millstone Hill. A high-resolution daytime echelle spectrograph and two new Fabry-Perot interferometers will be installed at the facility within the next 24 months, supplementing the Boston University all-sky imager and imaging spectrograph operating currently. In collaboration with the Millstone Hill ISR, the new instrument cluster will yield multi-diagnostic measurements of the mesosphere and thermosphere. Several initial investigations are planned. We are keen to hear from interested imembers of the aeronomy community about being involved in these and any other new collaborative projects at Millstone Hill. To begin with, a series of short (5-10 minutes) talks are planned to introduce the new planned facility and instruments. The second half of the workshop will be a discussion on the planned activities and any new ones offered up.

Steve Smith - A New Era in Ground-Based Optical Aeronomy at Millstone Hill.
