We have imaged the bipolar planetary nebula M2-9 using SOFIAs FORCAST instrument in six wavelength bands between 6.6 and 37.1 $mu m$. A bright central point source, unresolved with SOFIAs $sim$ 4${}$-to-5${}$ beam, is seen at each wavelength, and the
extended bipolar lobes are clearly seen at 19.7 $mu m$ and beyond. The photometry between 10 and 25 $mu m$ is well fit by the emission predicted from a stratified disk seen at large inclination, as has been proposed for this source by Lykou et al and by Smith and Gehrz. The principal new results in this paper relate to the distribution and properties of the dust that emits the infrared radiation. In particular, a considerable fraction of this material is spread uniformly through the lobes, although the dust density does increase at the sharp outer edge seen in higher resolution optical images of M2-9. The dust grain population in the lobes shows that small ($<$ 0.1 $mu m$) and large ($>$ 1 $mu m$) particles appear to be present in roughly equal amounts by mass. We suggest that collisional processing within the bipolar outflow plays an important role in establishing the particle size distribution.
