The 2MASS project is a collaboration between The University of Massachusetts and the Infrared Processing and Analysis Center (JPL/ Caltech). Funding is provided primarily by NASA and the NSF. The University of Massachusetts constructed and maintained the observatory facilities, and operated the survey. All data processing and data product generation is being carried out by IPAC. Survey operations began in Spring 1997 and concluded in Spring 2001. Last update: 2006 Dec 13.   Comments and inquiries: .
