Description:
The HST Near Infrared Camera and Multi-Object Spectrometer (NICMOS) provides imaging capabilities in broad, medium, and narrow band filters, broad-band imaging polarimetry, coronographic imaging, and slitless grism spectroscopy, in the wavelength range 0.8-2.5 microns. NICMOS has three adjacent but not contiguous cameras, designed to operate independently, each with a dedicated array at a different magnification scale.
SBNAF public database of thermal infrared observations of small
bodies in the solar system. Our database collects thermal emission
measurements of small Solar Systems targets that are otherwise
available in scattered sources and gives a complete description of the
data, with all information necessary to perform direct scientific
calculations and without the need to access additional, external
resources. See the details here: https://ird.konkoly.hu/
The Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph (STIS) was installed in HST on Feb. 14, 1997, replacing the GHRS spectrograph. STIS provides spectra and images at ultraviolet and visible wavelengths, probing the Universe from our solar system out to cosmological distances.
