The Joint Astrophysics Nascent Universe Satellite (JANUS) is a proposed multiwavelength cosmology science investigation focused on the epoch of reionization. The mission's primary objectives are to: discover high-redshift (55), including 8 GRBs from z>8. After a prompt slew, the Near-Infrared Telescope (NIRT; 0.7-1.7 microns) refines the XCAT position by observing the bright young afterglow of each burst. The position, brightness, and redshift are telemetered to ground-based astronomers in real time. Concurrently, a wide-angle objective-prism survey of the entire extragalactic sky yields detection of approximately 400 quasars in the 6
