2Mass Showcase
Posted by SpaceSightSeer on January 14, 2009 under Deep Space Imagery | 
Headlines were made when the 2 Micron All Sky Survey released over 4 million images of the night sky. Accessing this vast quantity of imagery is not for the faint-of-heart. It requires knowledge of object names and coordinates in order to use the search tools provided by the Infrared Science Archive. Fortunately the 2Mass site also includes several galleries for the casual observer such as a 2Mass Showcase and the 2MASSier Object Gallery.
