The SPHEREx satellite team has released some early data!
Here's a super quick look at a galaxy near the North Ecliptic Pole, in *112* different filters from the optical to near-infrared!
These images are rotated relative to the optical image shown.

More quick-look at the SPHEREx data!
From the DESI spectroscopy near the north Ecliptic pole, I selected a bright object classified as a QSO in the spectroscopy. Found this z=18th mag galaxy at redshift z=0.262.

About
Astronomer/IT staff at Perimeter Institute. Farm-raised left-handed vegetarian Canadian socialist & dad-joke appreciator.
I work on big sky surveys in the optical and radio. Currently busy with the DESI survey which is taking tens of millions of galaxy spectra; and CHIME & CHORD, groundbreaking Canadian radio-astronomy experiments. I like making our data publicly available; you can browse the imaging survey we did for DESI here:
