Scientific paper

The Solstice instrument aboard the upper atmosphere research satellite (UARS) is designed to correct the deficiencies of both long-term instrument drift and of intercomparison of solar data sets taken at different times by different instruments. The Solstice will make repeated measurements, spaced throughout the mission, of a number of bright early-type stars. In addition, it will determine the ratio of the solar flux to the average flux from an ensemble of stars. This ratio will be monitored throughout the UARS mission and archived.
