WISE Brown Dwarfs Simulation

WISE is partnering with the American Museum of Natural History and the Hayden Planetarium to visualize the Universe that WISE will reveal to us. Using a brown dwarf data simulation provided by WISE team members, we have integrated these data into Hayden's Digital Universe Atlas, a 3-D atlas of the Universe for your computer, thereby demonstrating what the solar neighborhood might look like once WISE has completed its mission. As WISE data comes in, we will be poised to quickly integrate them into the Atlas, providing a 3-D context of these data relative to the known Universe.
