Title

Spitzer Infrared Nearby Galaxy Survey

Description

The Spitzer Infrared Nearby Galaxy Survey is a comprehensive infrared imaging and spectroscopic survey of 75 nearby galaxies. Its primary goal is to characterize the infrared emission of galaxies and their principal infrared-emitting components, across a broad range of galaxy properties and star formation environments. SINGS provides new insights into the physical processes connecting star formation to the interstellar medium properties of galaxies and provides a vital foundation for understanding infrared observations of the distant universe and ultraluminous and active galaxies.

This dataset or service is made available by the Infrared Science Archive (IRSA) at IPAC, which is operated by the California Institute of Technology under contract with the National Aeronautics and Space Administration.
