Scientific paper

The star camera on board the WIRE spacecraft successfully operated as a high-precision photometry mission for some 17 months following the demise of the primary WIRE instrument. The bright roAp star γ Equ was chosen as the first stellar target, and was used to verify instrumental capabilities and stability. γ Equ was observed some 800,000 times by WIRE during the period 4 - 14 May 2001; oscillations were easily detected in spite of the extremely poor window function characteristic of WIRE at this early stage. In this paper we compare WIRE results with previous ground-based detections of oscillations in γ Equ.
