This service exposes about 0.5 million light curves of stars
classified as variable by the Gaia analysis system through the VO SSAP
protocol. The lightcurves are published per-band and are also
available through obscore.

Description:
The Galaxy Evolution Explorer (GALEX) satellite is a NASA mission led by the California Institute of Technology to investigate how star formation in galaxies evolved from the early Universe up to the present. GALEX uses microchannel plate detectors to obtain direct images in the near-UV (NUV) and far-UV (FUV) and a grism to disperse light for low resolution spectroscopy
This service delivers (most of) the datasets held at
GAVO Data Center. In addition to the default (nonstandard)
way of just appending accrefs to the get access URL, there is also a
very simple datalink service here that, for each dataset, essentially
just gives the dataset itself and possibly a preview. More advanced
datalink services might be available.
Some datasets may be embargoed, in which case the access yields a 403.
Credentials for individual files may be obtained by contacting the
site operators.
This is a form-based service allowing users to run simple
queries against GAVO Data Center's ivoa.obscore table, with
some nods to users looking of data near the optical waveband.
For serious use, the `obscore table`_ should be queried through
TAP.
Note that queries without spatial constraints may take time out. You
probably ought to switch to async TAP if you really want to run such
queries.

The GAVO Data Center's sitewide SIAP version 2 service
publishes all the images published through the site. For more advanced
queries including uploads, all this data is also available through
ObsTAP.
Scans of plates kept at Landessternwarte Heidelberg-Königstuhl. They
were obtained at location, at the German-Spanish Astronomical Center
(Calar Alto Observatory), Spain, and at La Silla, Chile. The plates
cover a time span between 1880 and 1999.
Specifically, HDAP is essentially complete for the plates taken with
the Bruce telescope, the Walz reflector, and Wolf's Doppelastrograph
at both the original location in Heidelberg and its later home on
Königstuhl.
