WISE Launch



NASA,WISE,Launch



NASA’s Wide-field Infrared Sur­vey Explor­er (WISE) launched aboard a Delta II rock­et from the Van­den­berg Air Force Base in Cal­i­for­nia on Dec.14, 2009 at 9:09 EST. 

The WISE space­craft will cir­cle Earth over the poles, scan­ning the entire sky one-and-a-half times in nine months. The mis­sion will uncov­er hid­den cos­mic objects, includ­ing the coolest stars, dark aster­oids and the most lumi­nous galaxies.

    Nice­ly done NASA. <3!

    Don’t get me wrong, but wast­ing a lot of mon­ey to see what’s up in the sky? 😀 Do we real­ly need this? Maybe that mon­ey would helped to rebuild what the USA destroied in Iraq or some­thing 😀 (I will get a lot of thumb­s­down for this but that’s the way I see it :P)

    It’s not just about Iraq and all the oth­er things. It’s about wast­ing mon­ey on things that are not real­ly nec­es­sary, and not solv­ing oth­er prob­lems that are more impor­tant. About the aster­oids… I think there are a lot of stuff up there that can detect such things (like Hub­ble), so why send­ing anoth­er expen­sive “tool” to do what have been done before? But as I said, I’m not against this stuff, I was just won­der­ing that all the amer­i­cans let the gov­ern­ment spend their mon­ey to what­ev­er they like

    you are total­ly right, a lot of the mon­ey is wast­ed on research­es that aren’t impor­tant at the time. Prob­lems like pol­lu­tion and can­cer must be made first pri­or­i­ty. Spend­ing mon­ey on space explor­ing is not a waste in my opinion.

    I real­ly should­n’t be dong this (get­ting into an argu­ment on youtube).

    You are so wrong about aster­oid detec­tion. If we detect them ear­ly (which is the goal of the aster­oid detec­tion part of WISE) we can get years (even decades, or cen­turies) of warn­ing about poten­tial impactors. I am not just some guy com­ment­ing on youtube, I actu­al­ly work in this field. You can believe me if you want, I am not going to stick around and argue about this on here.

    It would be cool if you saw a large forsterite crys­tal that split the spec­trum behind it mak­ing the spec­trom­e­ter obsolete.

    okay my mis­take… But even then, how could they stop such a thing? I know there’s some ideas on the sub­ject, like wrap­ping the rock in solar sail, or using some­thing heavy to pull it off course, but noth­ing that’s actu­al­ly been test­ed. Again, let me know if I’m wrong on this one.
    My point is, space explo­ration is pret­ty fun­da­men­tal sci­ence, for the most part. As such, it’s rather point­less to dis­cuss its use­ful­ness as a whole. I hope we can agree on that.

    BZZT!! WRONG answer!!There is no Nabiru. They are not look­ing for some­thing that isn’t there.

    Any­one who believes in that stu­pid 2012 crap and fan­ta­sy invis­i­ble plan­ets do not know any­thing about astro­nom­i­cal science. 

    ALL (and I mean ALL) astro­nom­i­cal objects of any sig­nif­i­cant size can be detect­ed by its grav­i­ta­tion­al effect with­out the need to launch ships to look for it, in infra-red or any oth­er spec­tral frequency.

    Once more for the dum­mies. There is NO Nabiru!!

    I am shocked to see what looks like rea­son­able con­ver­sa­tion on youtube.

    If we only had a few months warn­ing, then yeah, we are prob­a­bly screwed, but if we had a few years, don’t you think the com­bined efforts of the entire world could do some­thing? It isn’t like we would only have a few peo­ple work­ing on this. Work on all oth­er things could be put on the back burn­er (if we are all dead, they are unimportant).

    It took us about 8 years to go from no manned space flight to the moon. Using 1960’s tech! And there are a lot of the­o­ries on how you would divert an aster­oid. Don’t you think that it would be worth try­ing them if we thought that there was a strong chance of an impact?

    I am con­fi­dent that if we had 5 years to a decade (or more) warn­ing, we could fig­ure this one out…

    Oh, I’m all for that. I’m not too keen on human­i­ty “doing the dinosaur thing” so to speak. But there’s a lot of tech that would still need to be devel­oped, which most peo­ple won’t con­sid­er nec­es­sary unless we’ve got a left-over Alp hurtling towards us. And I’d rather be pre­pared in advance. The prob­lem with space, I think, is that many peo­ple think it’s a waist of resources, part­ly per­haps because its goals are too vague. Take the Mars-direct plan (youtube it) vs NASA’s con­stel­la­tion programme.

    There is a brown dwarf though: that chauf­feur guy from Me, Myself & Irene 🙂

    A noble effort, but I think you’re wast­ing your time reply­ing to folks like this, LordAfwa. He/she will just think you’re brain­washed by the gov­ern­ment or some­thing. Log­ic and evi­dence are no match for a con­spir­a­cy the­o­rist (or ‘believ­er’ if you will). 

    BTW, I read in the paper the oth­er day that that whole 2012 thing is due to a typo: the mayan cal­en­der does­n’t run out ’till 2120, when it enters the era 13.0.0.1 🙂

    And oth­er than that, I sim­ply think space explo­ration is real­ly cool and I’d like to see the var­i­ous agen­cies and com­pa­nies make the most of it.
    Some­thing that both­ers me is the inter­na­tion­al com­pe­ti­tion, espe­cial­ly where the moon is con­cerned. These things should be used to strength­en inter­na­tion­al coop­er­a­tion, and maybe pro­vide a sense of uni­ty between coun­tries. This might actu­al­ly deep­en a feel­ing of pur­pose, and thus increase sup­port for space flight. But that’s just me. 🙂

    you cant be more right my friend. Im hap­py to know that peo­ple like you still excite. Wars expens­es are huge. Gov­ern­ments can always finance more use­ful research but they spend their mon­ey on mil­i­tary ( oppor­tu­ni­ty cost) . what a shame, what a shame.
