About this work
VANDENBERG AIR FORCE BASE, Calif. -- The truck carrying NASA's Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer, or WISE, spacecraft arrives at Vandenberg Air Force Base in California. It will be taken to the Astrotech payload processing facility. The satellite will survey the entire sky at infrared wavelengths, creating a cosmic clearinghouse of hundreds of millions of objects, which will be catalogued, providing a vast storehouse of knowledge about the solar system, the Milky Way, and the universe.
