    Spitzer's Final Look 👁️ On its last day of science ops, the telescope's final observation measured our solar systems's dust, and then made a vital calibration measurement by closing a shutter that had been open since launch.

    The Tarantula Nebula 🕷️, located 160,000 light-years away, was one of 's first targets. Spitzer is set to retire on Jan. 30, so scientists generated a new view from multiple Spitzer images taken throughout the mission.
