Scientific paper

Ultraviolet spectra of the central stars of seven planetary nebulae obtained by the S2/68 sky-survey telescope on the TD-1 European satellite are presented. Possible emission features in the central star spectra are discussed, and black body temperatures are compared to temperatures found by H I and He II Zanstra temperatures. In addition, broadband fluxes in each of the four S2/68 channels are presented for 14 additional planetary nebulae. The fluxes derived from the TD-1 observations will be used in predicting exposure times for observations of central stars with satellites such as the International Ultraviolet Explorer.
