Spider is a balloon-borne scientific and technical pathfinder for CMBpol. Spider will map over half the sky with degree angular resolution, characterizing the linear polarization in five bands between 70 and 300 GHz, to a depth greater than Planck. The Spider data will complement the WMAP data (<100 GHz) in frequency coverage, and the data from Planck in polarimetric fidelity, significantly enhancing the scientific value of each of these orbital missions. The Spider flight will test receiver technology, optics, and an observing strategy that are directly applicable to CMBpol.
