SUMMARY:Super Ifu Deployable Experiment: Project Status
DESCRIPTION:Super Ifu Deployable Experiment: Project Status\nDr. Francisco 
 Prada\n\nSIDE (Super Ifu Deployable Experiment) is being proposed as a new
  instrument for the GTC 10.4m telescope on La Palma. It will be a wide-fie
 ld fiber-fed spectrograph of intermediate resolution, highly efficient in 
 multi-object and 3D spectroscopy. SIDE will feature the unique possibility
  of performing simultaneous visible and NIR observations for selected spec
 tral ranges. SIDE will produce unique data sets and open new opportunities
  to understand our view on galaxy formation and evolution and it will prov
 ide new insights on the physics of the dark universe. In this talk I will 
 give a brief instrument overview and review the status of SIDE and its pat
 hfinder, the mini SIDE. The SIDE project is lead by the Instituto de Astro
 f&iacute;sica de Andalucia in Granada (Spain).
