Scientific paper

After a blind-pointing maneuvre, to a point near the center of Jupiter, but offset 0.67 arc sec south along the central meridian, a series of FOS and GHRS spectra, covering the range from approximately 160 to 330 nm, will be obtained. The latitude chosen, 2 deg South, is as zonally uniform as possible. The planet will rotate under the HST aperture about once as the spectra are being acquired. The resultant spectrum will represent the zonal average spectrum at that latitude, at nearly unit local air mass. The spectrum will be analyzed for compositional and vertical information, using such species as NH3 and C2H2. A single FOS exposure will also be made, at high air mass, at the same latitude.
