Scientific paper

We propose an IRAC observation to cover the 2MASS calibration field which includes the open cluster M67. 2MASS observed this field more than 3600 times producing a database of remarkable relative photometric accuracy permitting precise spectral classification on the basis of color alone. In the deep combination of all of these observations cluster members are detected to nearly the hydrogen burning limit. M67 is prototypical of a solar-age solar-metalicity population. Its mid-IR characterization is of value for both constraining stellar evolution as well as for population synthesis.
