Full‐sky DIRBE intensity maps in Galactic Mollweide projection. Only IPD scattered light and emission have been removed. Intensities are scaled linearly in the ranges (−0.05, 0.3), (−0.05, 0.3), (−0.01, 0.2), (0, 0.2), (0, 2), (0.5, 3), (0, 3), (0, 15), (0, 20), (0, 20) MJy sr⁻¹ at wavelengths from 1.25 to 240 μm. Any intensities above or below these ranges appear white or black, respectively.
