HISTORY FITS_REPROJ_HEALPIX:Thu Oct 15 15:57:10 2015 Converted to Flat Map Proje
HISTORY This FITS file contains a reprojection of WMAP HealPix data into        
HISTORY a flat map; this changes the noise properties of the CMB data.          
HISTORY Therefore this map should not be used for a CMB analysis
