The Hopkins Ultraviolet Telescope (HUT) was one of three ultraviolet
instruments of the ASTRO-1 mission flown on the space shuttle Columbia
during 2-10 December 1990. 106 spectrophotometric observations of 77
targets were obtained in the far-UV (i.e., 912-1850 Ã…) at a resolution
of ~3 Ã…. A few sources were observed in the 415-912 Ã… region with a
1.5 Ã… resolution. The same three instruments were later flown on the
space shuttle Endeavour from 3-17 March 1995 as part of the ASTRO-2
mission. During the longer ASTRO-2 mission, 385 observations of 265
targets were obtained.
The Hopkins Ultraviolet Telescope (HUT) was a shuttle-borne instrument used to obtain ultraviolet spectra in the far ultraviolet region of the spectrum. It was part of the ASTRO payload complement of three co-mounted instruments that flew in December 1990 and March 1995 as Space Shuttle missions. More than 650 spectra were obtained of 340 targets. In April, 2013, the HUT data was reprocessed to improve calibration, expand metadata, add new data products, and update file formats. The current cone service uses the metadata from these reprocessed files.
All MAST catalog holdings are available via a ConeSearch endpoint.
This service provides access to all, with an optional non-standard parameter for an individual catalog to query.
