Can your Meat Monster fit in my mouth?

W.I.S.E. telescope provides never-before-seen view of universe
LOGAN — An instrument designed and built in Utah is about to give astronomers, and the general public, an entirely new view of the universe.

NASA has just released more than a million images captured by the W.I.S.E. satellite telescope. W.I.S.E., the Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer, was born in the Space Dynamics Laboratory in North Logan, part of the Utah State University Research Foundation.
WISE captured more than 2.7 million multi-color images.
"It's basically an atlas to the whole sky, since we've mapped the whole sky," said W.I.S.E. project manager John Elwell.

The satellite telescope was launched by NASA in December, 2009. It captures images using infrared light, a technique that requires the cameras to be kept extremely cold with frozen nitrogen. W.I.S.E. was always intended to have a very short useful life. It operated for only 13 months before the nitrogen warmed up and put the cameras out of commission.
