NASA engineers reveal that WISE carries devices capable of producing infrared images that are up to 1,000 times more sensitive than the ones carried to orbit by previous, similar explorers such as IRAS, AKARI and COBE.

They cite an early paper saying IRAS had discovered unknown IR sources (none of which turned out to be in the solar system), or any of several reports on the possible existence of undiscovered planets ( "planet X"), or the 2003 discovery of the dwarf planet Eris.

His technical contributions to the field is immeasurable and can be seen in all IR space telescopes from IRAS to JWST.

While the nebula's official name is Barnard 3, or IRAS Ring G159.6-18.5, the folks at NASA have dubbed it the "Wreath Nebula" because, in the words of the space agency, "one might picture a wreath in these bright green and red dust clouds -- a ring of evergreens donned with a festive red bow, a jaunty sprig of holly, and silver bells throughout."

Instead, future governments would have had to steal the money out of middle class IRAS/401Ks – via high taxes — in order to pay off US Treasuries as they come due.
