Me ka hoʻohana ʻana i ʻelua miliona mau kiʻi i paʻi ʻia e ka Spitzer Space Telescope, ua hana kahi hui ʻepekema mai ka mokuʻāina ʻo Wisconsin i kahi panorama 360-degere o ka Milky Way - GLIMPSE360. Ua kiʻi ʻia nā kiʻi ma ka laulā infrared. Hiki ke hoʻonui a hoʻoneʻe ʻia ke kiʻi i hōʻiliʻili ʻia.
Hiki ke mahalo ʻia nā hiʻohiʻona Panoramic o ka Galaxy ma ka ʻaoʻao:. Hōʻike ia i nā ao kala a me nā hōkū ʻōlinolino pākahi. ʻO nā ao ʻulaʻula kahi wela o nā hōkū. ʻO nā kaula ʻōmaʻomaʻo i koe mai nā pahū supernova nunui.
Ke nānā nei ka Spitzer Space Telescope i ka lewa i ka infrared mai ka makahiki 2003. Ua manaʻo ʻia e hana no 2,5 mau makahiki, akā e hana mau ana i kēia lā. Kahuli ia ma kahi orbit heliocentric. Mahalo i nā kiʻi i hoʻouna ʻia e ia, ua hoʻonui ʻia ka waihona o nā mea i kā mākou Galaxy e 360 miliona ma ka papahana GLIMPSE200.
