Description:
The GHOSTS survey is the largest study to date of the resolved stellar populations in the outskirts of disk galaxies. The sample consists of 14 disk galaxies within 17 Mpc, whose outer disks and halos are imaged with the Hubble Space Telescope Advanced Camera for Surveys (ACS).
All MAST catalog holdings are available via a ConeSearch endpoint.
GALEX data are available via the standard MAST CS service,and an auxiliary service for GALEX data only.
This catalog includes Galex GR 6/7 data, thus including the closeout release, as described at https://galex.stsci.edu/GR6/.
The Galaxy Evolution Explorer (GALEX), a NASA Small Explorer mission, performed the first all-sky, deep imaging and spectroscopic ultraviolet surveys in space. The prime goal of GALEX was to study star formation in galaxies and its evolution with time.

GOODS aims to unite extremely deep observations from NASA's Great Observatories, the Spitzer Space Telescope, Hubble, and Chandra, ESA's XMM-Newton, and from the most powerful ground-based facilities, to survey the distant universe to the faintest flux limits across the broadest range of wavelengths. GOODS will survey a total of roughly 320 square arcminutes in two fields centered on the Hubble Deep Field North and the Chandra Deep Field South.
The Guide Star Catalog II (GSC-II) is an all-sky optical catalog based on 1" resolution scans of the photographic Sky Survey plates, at two epochs and three bandpasses, from the Palomar and UK Schmidt telescopes. This all-sky catalog will ultimately contains positions, proper motions, classifications, and magnitudes in multiple bandpasses for almost a billion objects down to approximately Jpg=21, Fpg=20. The GSC-II is currently used for HST Bright Object Protection and HST pointing. Looking ahead, the GSC-II will form the basis of the Guide Star Catalog for JWST. This was constructed in collaboration with ground-based observatories for use with the GEMINI, VLT and GALILEO telescopes
The GSC-I catalog is an all-sky catalog of positions and magnitudes for approximately 19 million stars and other objects in the sixth to fifteenth magnitude range. The GSC is primarily based on an all-sky, single-epoch collection of Schmidt plates. For centers at +6 degrees and north, a 1982 epoch "Quick V" survey was obtained from the Palomar Observatory, while for southern fields, materials from the UK SERC J survey (epoch = 1975) and its equatorial extension (epoch = 1982) were used.
The Guide Star Catalog (GSC) is a star catalog compiled to support the Hubble Space Telescope with targeting off-axis stars.
GSC-II contains 945,592,683 stars out to magnitude 21.
Photometric calibrations for GSC2 are available through this interface.

The High Speed Photometer (HSP) was one of the four original axial instruments on the Hubble Space Telescope (HST). The HSP was designed to make very rapid photometric observations of astrophysical sources in a variety of filters and passbands from the near ultraviolet to the visible. The HSP was removed from HST during the First Servicing Mission in December, 1993.
