Scientific paper

WFPC2 parallel observations will be obtained in the Ultraviolet in a search for interesting objects. This program is designed to find extragalactic sources with near UV excesses {3000A} outside of the galactic plane and far UV sources {1600A} in the galactic plane. The primary goal of this survey is to discover sources with excess ultraviolet flux. The observing strategy is to use the WFPC2 filter which provides wavelengths slightly shorter than those available from the ground but still has the maximum available sensitivity. Ground based observations {initially the digitized sky survey plates} at longer wavelengths will be used to estimate the colors of objects and {for the single exposure instances} to discriminate between sources and cosmic rays. This program is intended to fill those WFPC2 parallel opportunities which are not selected by the TAC approved parallel programs. These data will be placed immediately into the Hubble Data Archive.
