Spitzer MIPS 24 and 70 micron Imaging of the South Ecliptic Pole (SEP)
The
Spitzer/
MIPS 24 and 70 μm imaging of an 11.5 square degree region near the South Ecliptic Pole (SEP) has been carried out in order to complement sub-millimeter wavelength observations (250-500 μm) of the same region of sky taken with the Balloon-borne Large Aperture Sub-millimeter Telescope (
BLAST), with the goal of better characterizing the nature of sub-millimeter selected galaxies and their role in galaxy evolution. This field has also been extensively mapped at other wavelengths, and will be imaged from 100-500 μm as part of the Herschel Multi-tiered Extragalactic Survey (
HerMES).

Also available are SEP image "cutouts" using IRSA's
Cutouts Service, which is a general tool to
create single or multiple small FITS (and JPEG) image cutouts of data sets archived at IRSA.
