After more than a decade of mapping the sky, NASA’s NEOWISE telescope, the Near-Earth Object Wide-Field Infrared Survey Explorer mission, was officially decommissioned last week. During its nearly 15-year run, NEOWISE observed the cosmos at infrared wavelengths and collected data on more than 740 million objects, including stars, galaxies and potentially hazardous asteroids. But the mission that...
