After a series of delays, NASA's Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE) began its mission Monday morning, rocketing toward orbit at 9:09 A.M. (Eastern Standard Time). WISE's launch from Vandenberg Air Force Base in California was initially delayed because of a scheduling conflict with a satellite launch on the East Coast, then twice pushed back due to an anomaly in a steering engine on its booster rocket.
