Here we present four IRAS high resolution images of the Small Magellanic Cloud, as reconstructed by the HIRAS program using the Pyramid Maximum Entropy method (Bontekoe et al. 1994). (HIRAS is not to be confused with HiRes (Aumann et al. 1990).) The images show much more detail than in Schwering & Israel (1990). Dust temperatures range from 25–41 K (Stanimirović et al. in prep).
