The oxygen-rich red giant U Equulei (IRAS 20547+0247) is one of the most mysterious evolved stars known. It is partially enshrouded by a thick, dusty envelope, but the nature of that envelope is like no other mass-loss envelope in our current inventory. We propose spectroscopic observations with the IRS high-resolution spectrometers over their full range to complement our existing 1-4 micron spectroscopy in order to better understand the physical conditions and the geometry of the circumstellar material and to help enlighten us regarding the events that created the envelope as we currently view it.
