-An new initiative [[https://visibilityininterferometry.github.io/index.html|Visibility in Interferometry]] was started by Rachael Roettenbacher and Claudia Paladini to improve the representation of underrepresented groups in interferometry. As part of this effort, they are compiling a list of contact information and research areas of women in interferometry that can be used as a reference to diversify invited speaker lists.+new initiative [[https://visibilityininterferometry.github.io/index.html|Visibility in Interferometry]] was started by Rachael Roettenbacher and Claudia Paladini to improve the representation of underrepresented groups in interferometry.

 Several members of MUSIC participated in the [[https://www.noao.edu/meetings/2020decadal/|NOAO Decadal Planning Workshop]] held in Tucson, AZ on Feb 20-21, 2018. Links to presentations are available through the meeting website. Two white papers on optical/infrared interferometry were submitted in response to the [[https://www.noao.edu/2020Decadal/whitepapers.php|NOAO planning call]]. Several members of MUSIC participated in the [[https://www.noao.edu/meetings/2020decadal/|NOAO Decadal Planning Workshop]] held in Tucson, AZ on Feb 20-21, 2018.

 It is natural to think of space as the ideal venue for interferometry, with no disturbing/absorbing atmosphere and with easy reconfiguration of free-floating telescopes. MUSIC represents the U.S. ground-based interferometry community. It does not try to speak for the space intereferometry community, but needless to say, there are many links, technically, scientifically, and in exchanges of scientific and technical personnel. This has been evident and richly exploited by NASA in the simultaneous development of SIM technology and Keck Interferometer, while operating the Palomar Testbed Interferometer. It is reasonable to expect continuing significant transfers, in both directions, in scientific and technical arenas, and we look forward to continued fruitful collaboration between these communities, developing strategies which make optimum utilization of both ground and space platforms. It is natural to think of space as the ideal venue for interferometry, with no disturbing/absorbing atmosphere and with easy reconfiguration of free-floating telescopes.
