About this work
VANDENBERG AIR FORCE BASE, Calif. - NASA's Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer, or WISE, enclosed in a transportation canister, reaches the top of the mobile launch tower at Space Launch Complex 2 at Vandenberg Air Force Base in California. WISE will survey the entire sky at infrared wavelengths, creating a cosmic clearinghouse of hundreds of millions of objects which will be catalogued and provide a vast storehouse of knowledge about the solar system, the Milky Way, and the universe.
