Millimetron is a cryogenically cooled 10-m aperture space observatory. The telescope of the observatory will be maintained at a temperature less than 10 K, enabling its unprecedented sensitivity gain and will operate from 50 µm to 10 mm, encompassing the far-infrared, submillimeter and millimeter wavelength ranges. Observatory has two modes of observations: as a single dish space telescope, and as an element of Space-Earth Very Large Baseline Interferometer (SVLBI). Scientific instrumentation includes four instruments with capabilities for imaging, spectroscopy (medium- and high-resolution) and polarimetry, as well as an instrument for space-earth interferometry. We describe the key science cases and progress of the MSO development.
