DEEP2 is a major new Keck spectroscopic survey of 50,000 galaxies that aims to provide a detailed map of the cosmos at redshift z ∼ 1. We present an overview of DEEP2 and its relation to DEEP and its predecessor (DEEP1) in terms of science goals, of the instrument DEIMOS that enables completion of this survey in only a few years, and of the current status of the project. First science projects that use the first 10% of the survey data and their early results are highlighted.
