The World Space Observatory Project is a new space mission concept, grown out the needs of the Astronomical community to have access to the part of the electromagnetic spectrum where all known physics can be studied on all possible time scales: the Ultraviolet range. The physical diagnostics in this domain supply a richness of new experimental data unmatched by any other wavelength range, for the studies of the Universe. As WSO/UV has been driven by the needs of scientists from many different countries, a new implementation model was needed to bring the World Space Observatory to reality. The WSO/UV consists of a single Ultraviolet Telescope in orbit, incorporating a primary mirror of 1.7 m diameter feeding a UV spectrograph and UV Imagers.
