Hera is a new experiment at the HEASARC (High Energy Astrophysics Science Archive Research Center) at the NASA Goddard Space Flight Center to provide a complete data analysis environment over the Internet for archival researchers. This new facility complements the existing Browse database search facility that is available on the Web. With Hera, users can search the HEASARC data archives with a Web browser and save any selected data set to their Hera disk space area. This only takes a few seconds compared to the many minutes or hours that it could take to down load large data sets to the user's local machine. The user can then immediately log into one of the available Hera server machines and begin analyzing the data without having to install any local software except for a very small Hera client application program that runs on the user's local machine. Hera is currently most useful for expert users who are already familiar with analyzing high energy data sets with the HEASARC software. In the future we intend to make Hera more useful for the novice scientific user by providing more on-line help features to guide the user through the data analysis process.
