'''Click on the white buttons''' on the far right (see figure below) to download the corresponding mosaic: 3.6, 4.5, 5.8, 8., 24, 70, or 160 microns. NOTE THAT if the data are not yet public, these white buttons will not appear. Note also that certain observation strategies result in strangely shaped and/or incomplete mosaics, and/or your target may be on the edge of one of the mosaics. If you would like to combine multiple observations into one, go back to the [[How_do_I_download_data_from_the_Spitzer_Telescope%3F |main download data]] page and pick "combining more than one mosaic."
