The MINOS experiment is now making precise measurements of the $\nu_\mu$ disappearance oscillations seen in atmospheric neutrinos, and will extend our reach towards the so far unseen $\theta_{13}$ by looking for $\nu_e$ appearance in the $\nu_\mu$ beam. It does so by using the intense, well-understood NuMI neutrino beam created at Fermilab and observing it 735 km away at the Soudan Mine in...

OPERA is a long baseline neutrino oscillation experiment employing nuclear
emulsions for the direct observation of tau neutrinos in the CERN to Gran Sasso
CNGS muon neutrino beam. I will report on status and prospects of the
experiment, which observed its first neutrino events in the lead emulsion target
in summer 2007.
