Antarctica campaign 2006

BLAST Targets:

·       The map below illustrates the areas of the sky observed by BLAST during the 2006 flight.  The whiteness of the area indicates the amount of time dedicated to the scan.  Scans are superimposed onto a combined IRAS + DIRBE map of the 100 μm dust emission shown in red (from Schlegel et al. 1998).  Targets of interest to BLAST are labeled in green.

·       The map below shows a close-up of the galactic scans performed by BLAST during the 2006 flight.  As in the figure above, the whiteness of the area indicates the amount of time dedicated to the scan.  Scans are superimposed onto a combined IRAS + DIRBE map of the 100 μm dust emission shown in red (from Schlegel et al. 1998).  Targets of interest to BLAST are labeled in green.

Sweden campaign 2005

BLAST Targets:

·       The map below shows the Galactic regions observed by BLAST during the 2005 flight. The background (greyscale) is a combined IRAS + DIRBE map of the 100 μm dust emission (from Schlegel et al. 1998).
