Two projects in conjunction with the International Ultraviolet Explorer Satellite are discussed. These projects were to: (1) study the properties of the H2 and H2+ quasi-molecular absorption features at lambda lambda 1600 and 1400 in the ultraviolet spectra of the hydrogen-rich DA white dwarfs and to search for additional spectroscopic features in the spectra of these stars; and (2) use the ultraviolet portion of the spectrum of the peculiar rare earth-rich late F type star, HR6560 (HD159870), to establish whether or not the element abundance anomalies are produced in conjunction with its having a white dwarf binary companion. The data show that HR6560 is probably not associated with any hot subluminous or degenerate star.
