Within the newly started Hamburg/ESO survey for bright southern quasars, the low-redshift QSO HE 1029-1401 (z = 0.086) was found by automated search on objective prism plates and subsequently confirmed by slit spectroscopy. With V = 13.86, it is among the three brightest QSOs in the sky and the brightest ever found by optical selection. Broad band optical and NIR photometry together with IUE observations are used to construct the energy distribution between 3.5 microns and 1450 A.
