The fundamental objective of the WISE mission was to map the entire sky in infrared light with hundreds to hundreds of thousands of times greater sensitivity than previous surveys. WISE completed this objective in 2010. This image shows the entire sky as seen by WISE with its four infrared detectors (3.4- and 4.6-micron light is colored blue; 12-micron light is green; and 22-micron light is red), with the plane of our Milky Way galaxy running across the center.
