Scientific paper

The Hubble Data Archive currently contains over 2.5 Terabytes of science and engineering data online. A user-friendly archive interface, Starview, allows researchers to explore the contents of and retrieve data from the archive. Early in 1997, two new instruments will be installed in the Hubble Space Telescope -- NICMOS (Near IR Camera) and STIS (Imaging Spectrograph). The present data output from HST ( ~ 2.2 Gbytes/day) is expected at least to triple after these two new instruments are commissioned. A review of the services provided by the HST archive and plans to upgrade it to handle the increased data load will be summarized.
