NASA's WISE Telescope Completes First Survey of the Entire Sky
NASA's Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE) mission has now completed its first survey of the entire sky--returning more than a million images of celestial objects ranging from distant galaxies to asteroids. WISE has observed more than 100,000 known and previously unseen asteroids, some of which are near-Earth objects that pass relatively close to the Earth. The powerful telescope is also expected to find up to dozens of new comets.
