Last Friday the Department of Physics and Astronomy and the Center for Astrophysical Sciences at JHU hosted a reunion of those who worked on the Far Ultraviolet Spectroscopic Explorer (FUSE) mission.

FUSE was operated by JHU for NASA from a control room in the Bloomberg building from June 1999 until October 2007, with a large local cadre of scientists, engineers, post-docs and students. This month marks the 20th anniversary of the FUSE launch, and thus an appropriate time to celebrate!
