Galaxy Explorer All Sky Survey: Near UV
Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)
The GALEX, Galaxy Explorer, mission was launched by a Pegasus-XL vehicle on April 28 2003 into a 690km altitude, 29 degree inclination, circular orbit with a 98.6 minute period.
Description
The GALEX instrument allows imaging and spectroscopic observations to be made in two ultraviolet bands, Far UV (FUV) 1350-1780A and Near UV (NUV) 1770-2730A. The instrument provides simultaneous co-aligned FUV and NUV images with spatial resolution 4.3 and 5.3 arcseconds respectively.
Details of the performance of the instrument and detectors can be found in Morrissey et al. (2007) ApJS, 173, 682. <p> The <i>SkyView</i> GALEX surveys mosaic the intensity images of All-Sky Survey images. For a given pixel only the nearest image is used. Since a given GALEX observation is circular, this maximizes the coverage compared with default image finding algorithms which use the distance from edge of the image. <p> As of February 10, 2011, SkyView uses the GALEX GR6 data release.
