星系演化探测器拍摄的首批图片

GALEX 1st Light Compilation   Mission: Galaxy Evolution Explorer (GALEX)

Spacecraft: GALEX Orbiter
Instrument: GALEX Telescope
Product Size: 2112 samples x 1533 lines
Produced By: California Institute of Technology



Original Caption Released with Image:
This compilation shows the constellation Hercules, as imaged on May 21 and 22 by NASA's Galaxy Evolution Explorer. The images were captured by the two channels of the spacecraft camera during the mission's "first light" milestone.

The Galaxy Evolution Explorer first light images are dedicated to the crew of the Space Shuttle Columbia. The Hercules region was directly above Columbia when it made its last contact with NASA Mission Control on February 1, over the skies of Texas.

The Galaxy Evolution Explorer launched on April 28 on a mission to map the celestial sky in the ultraviolet and determine the history of star formation in the universe over the last 10 billion years.

这些图片是由NASA的星系演化探测器于2003年5月21日和22日拍摄的武仙座天区。它们是由飞船上搭载的相机的两个通道在“开光”期间获得的。
GALEX开光时拍摄的照片对哥伦比亚号航天飞机表达了敬意。武仙座天区正是位于2003年2月1日哥伦比亚机组在德克萨斯上空与NASA取得最后联系时所在的空域之上。
GALEX于2003年4月28日发射,它被用于在紫外波段的研究宇宙,并确定上100亿年中恒星形成的历史。




附带的介绍不是太细,毕竟是为测试而拍的嘛。
