In addition, scientists will use the data to study how galaxies have changed over the universe\u2019s nearly 14-billion-year history and learn about the distribution of key ingredients for life in our own galaxy.<\/p>\n<p><em>Image credit: NASA\/JPL-Caltech<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>NASA\u2019s SPHEREx Observatory has mapped the entire sky in 102 infrared colors, as seen here in this image released on Dec. 18, 2025.
