The SPHEREx Science Data Center is based at IPAC and reduces the data for scientists with @irsaipac.bsky.social

IRSA will release many science products, including:
- All-sky galaxy redshift catalog
- Broad-band mosaic maps of deep fields
- Catalog of interstellar ices absorption features

This all-sky mosaic image is built from a selection of the 102 infrared colors. The Milky Way runs through the middle of the image. Most of the points of light above & below it are other galaxies.

Color map:
blue, green, & white = stars
blue = hot hydrogen gas
red = cosmic dust
