The view of the Galactic Plane at 24 µm is breathtaking. A great part of this beauty arises from the complexity of the Interstellar Medium shaped by endless energetic events driven by HII regions, supernova explosions, Wolf-Rayets, Luminous Blue Variables, and evolved and new born massive stars. A sample of these objects is presented in this poster, gathered from the Multiband Imaging Photometer for Spitzer (MIPS) Survey of the Galactic Plane I and II (MIPSGAL; see Carey et al. 2006, this meeting). The global color properties of these objects are derived by combining the data at 24 and 70um with that from the Galactic Legacy Infrared Mid-Plane Survey Extraordinaire (GLIMPSE), and following similar schemes as those used in the Spitzer Surveys of the Magellanic Clouds (Bolatto et al. 2006, astroph-0608561; Meixner et al. 2006, astroph-0606356).
This work is based on observations made with the Spitzer Space Telescope, which is operated by the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, California Institute of Technology under a contract with NASA. Support for this work was provided by NASA in part through an award issued by JPL/Caltech.
