The period from 1984 through 1987 saw no new infrared space missions. Investigations, however, continued with airborne, balloon, and rocket activities, and follow-up analysis of data from the Infrared Astronomical Satellite (IRAS). Two major ephemeral events occurred during this time, the Comet Halley apparition and SN 1987a, the supernova in the Large Magellanic Cloud. With improved analysis on the database and follow-up observations new results have been forthcoming from IRAS. This work may help astronomers understand everything from the origin and evolution of quasars to the composition of material in cometary nuclei.
