Scientific paper

The Deep Ultraviolet Explorer (DUVE) satellite, which is a space-based observatory providing all-sky imagery and high-resolution spectroscopy at wavelengths between 1150 and 3000 A, is discussed. Sky coverage, resolution, and sensitivity of DUVE are each equal to or better than available on existing spacecraft. Recent advances in controls, sensors, and telescope lightweighting coupled with space-qualified designs combine to make the DUVE project affordable within the guidelines of the Medium Explorer-class mission scenario.
