This report details the work of NASA grant NAG5-9379 which is concerned with the discovery and characterization of new astrophysical molecules. Numerous papers have been or will be published on the laboratory detection of 21 molecules of astrophysical interest, nearly all not previously observed, and nearly all of astrophysical interest as plausible candidates for the interstellar gas and circumstellar shells. Also of interest include the laboratory detection of of optical molecular band exactly coinciding in frequency with the strongest and most widely studied optical diffuse interstellar band which remains an enigma in astrophysical spectroscopy. A new laser spectrometer has been developed and is now undergoing testing.
