NASA's Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer, or WISE, has spotted its first never-before-seen near-Earth asteroid, the first of hundreds it is expected to find during its mission to map the whole sky in infrared light, according to a NASA statement. WISE is expected to find hundreds of new asteroids during the mission.
Meanwhile, a National Research Council report released Friday said the Congress and the President have not requested or appropriated funding to complete a survey mandated in the NASA Authorization Act of 2005 reports SpaceFlightNow, ScienceInsider, The Daily Telegraph, Scientific American, and NPR.
