OSTI ID:7298269

The definition and feasibility study of an integrated ultraviolet and astronomy facility onboard Spacelab are presented. This is based on the scientific aims of different European countries. The accommodation of such a facility in the first and second Spacelab flights was also studied, taking into account external constraints of both flights and the possibility of future missions. Well identified possible work packages are outlined in view of future international cooperation.
