The IC 2118 team is working to characterize the young star population of a small cloud near Rigel that is (probably) part of the greater Orion star forming ecosystem. We have used about 12.5 hours of Spitzer time (!) to map a large region of the cloud with both IRAC and MIPS. We have taken several posters to AAS meetings -- see the [[Posters and Handouts from AAS meetings | posters and handouts page]].  We have obtained a lot of optical data in support of this analysis.  We are working on writing up the journal article.
