WISE Launch Coverage



WISE READY, SET TO GO – ARC
NASA's Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer is on track to begin its mission this week. WISE is scheduled to lift off from Vandenberg Air Force Base in California aboard a Delta II rocket. WISE will map the universe with its hyper-sensitive infrared cameras to reveal new objects big and small.
Ned Wright is WISE’s principal investigator.
Ned Wright: "We’ll be taking a picture every 11 seconds and so that means that in 6 mos. It takes to cover the sky we’ll be taking about 1.5 million images. We’ll stitch them together to make an image atlas of the entire sky, figure out what objects are on there, and make a catalogue."

Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer has been wrapped in the outer nose cone, or 'fairing,' that will protect it during its scheduled Dec. 9 launch from Vandenberg Air Force Base, Calif.

Date: Dec. 12
Mission: Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE)
Launch Vehicle: Delta II 7320
Launch Site: Vandenberg Air Force Base - SLC 2
Launch Time: 6:09 – 6:23 a.m. PST / 9:09 - 9:23 a.m. EST
Description: The WISE mission will survey the entire sky in the mid-infrared with far greater sensitivity than any previous mission or program ever has. The WISE survey will consist of over a million images, from which hundreds of millions of astronomical objects will be cataloged.

Higgs in Space![0912.0004]
We consider the possibility that the Higgs can be produced in dark matter annihilations, appearing as a line in the spectrum of gamma rays at an energy determined by the masses of the WIMP and the Higgs itself.

LHC #9, poised to take #1 soon? US LHC Blog
"it means that unless nature is very kind 2010 might still be a bit early for “paradigm shifting” discoveries. I should mention two things: (1) people are keeping their eyes out in case nature is this kind and (2) there’s still a lot of very important science to be done in this period (e.g. top quark mass measurements).
After 2010 the LHC will have a “long” shut down to prepare to ramp up to 7 TeV per beam collisions. That’s when the machine will really ramp up its search for things like supersymmetry, extra dimensions, dark matter, and the Higgs (if we don’t discover it sooner). Then the LHC can aim for #1 on Time magazine’s list of scientific discoveries."

Date: Dec. 12
Mission: Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE)
Launch Vehicle: Delta II 7320
Launch Site: Vandenberg Air Force Base - SLC 2
Launch Time: 6:09 – 6:23 a.m. PST / 9:09 - 9:23 a.m. EST
Description: The WISE mission will survey the entire sky in the mid-infrared with far greater sensitivity than any previous mission or program ever has. The WISE survey will consist of over a million images, from which hundreds of millions of astronomical objects will be cataloged.

Higgs in Space![0912.0004]
We consider the possibility that the Higgs can be produced in dark matter annihilations, appearing as a line in the spectrum of gamma rays at an energy determined by the masses of the WIMP and the Higgs itself.

LHC #9, poised to take #1 soon? US LHC Blog
"it means that unless nature is very kind 2010 might still be a bit early for “paradigm shifting” discoveries. I should mention two things: (1) people are keeping their eyes out in case nature is this kind and (2) there’s still a lot of very important science to be done in this period (e.g. top quark mass measurements).
After 2010 the LHC will have a “long” shut down to prepare to ramp up to 7 TeV per beam collisions. That’s when the machine will really ramp up its search for things like supersymmetry, extra dimensions, dark matter, and the Higgs (if we don’t discover it sooner). Then the LHC can aim for #1 on Time magazine’s list of scientific discoveries."

Higgs in Space![0912.0004]
We consider the possibility that the Higgs can be produced in dark matter annihilations, appearing as a line in the spectrum of gamma rays at an energy determined by the masses of the WIMP and the Higgs itself.

LHC #9, poised to take #1 soon? US LHC Blog
"it means that unless nature is very kind 2010 might still be a bit early for “paradigm shifting” discoveries. I should mention two things: (1) people are keeping their eyes out in case nature is this kind and (2) there’s still a lot of very important science to be done in this period (e.g. top quark mass measurements).
After 2010 the LHC will have a “long” shut down to prepare to ramp up to 7 TeV per beam collisions. That’s when the machine will really ramp up its search for things like supersymmetry, extra dimensions, dark matter, and the Higgs (if we don’t discover it sooner). Then the LHC can aim for #1 on Time magazine’s list of scientific discoveries."

WISE Launch Coverage



WISE READY, SET TO GO – ARC
NASA's Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer is on track to begin its mission this week. WISE is scheduled to lift off from Vandenberg Air Force Base in California aboard a Delta II rocket. WISE will map the universe with its hyper-sensitive infrared cameras to reveal new objects big and small.
Ned Wright is WISE’s principal investigator.
Ned Wright: "We’ll be taking a picture every 11 seconds and so that means that in 6 mos. It takes to cover the sky we’ll be taking about 1.5 million images. We’ll stitch them together to make an image atlas of the entire sky, figure out what objects are on there, and make a catalogue."

Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer has been wrapped in the outer nose cone, or 'fairing,' that will protect it during its scheduled Dec. 9 launch from Vandenberg Air Force Base, Calif.
