GALEX

The Galaxy Evolution Explorer (GALEX) is a NASA orbiting space telescope that will observe galaxies in ultraviolet light across 10 billion years of cosmic history. Such observations will tell scientists how galaxies, the basic structures of our Universe, evolve and change. Additionally, GALEX will probe the causes of star formation during a period when most of the stars and elements we see today had their origins.


STScI provides archive development and support through MAST for GALEX, starting in September 2003.
