- The project to follow up the most powerful luminous galaxies with WISE builds on Blain’s Co-I role in developing and executing the mission, especially its extragalactic aspects. He proposed and led the spectroscopic follow up to search for the redshifts of the discoveries using large optical telescopes. Blain developed and wrote the contingent case for ALMA observations, which resulted in the data being acquired with a Chilean PI. Blain made a substantial contribution to the drafting and presentation of the paper. He also contributed to the overall editorial process.
