Ah, so this isn't actually a bug. There's even a comment in the code
indicating that this is the intended behavior:

https://github.com/yt-project/yt/blob/master/yt/data_objects/construction_data_containers.py#L373

So the choices about what to do here are, in my opinion:

* Change this behavior to fill the array with zeros instead of NaNs
* Improve the documentation to make this choice clearer

I'm not sure offhand what is the best approach, especially given that
changing this behavior would be a backward compatibility break.

For the original question: your data aren't all NaNs I suspect. E.g. take a
look at this example script:

import yt
import numpy as np
ds = yt.load('IsolatedGalaxy/galaxy0030/galaxy0030')
disk = ds.disk('c', [0, 0, 1], (1000, 'pc'), (100, 'pc'))
proj = ds.proj('density', axis='z', weight_field='density',
data_source=disk,
               method='integrate')
dens_proj = proj['density']
print(dens_proj[np.isfinite(dens_proj)])
print(np.nanmax(dens_proj))
print(np.nanmin(dens_proj))

Which prints out values in regions where the projection isn't filled with
NaNs.
