The SOLar-STellar Irradiance Comparison Experiment (SOLSTICE) on the SOlar Radiation and Climate Experiment (SORCE) spacecraft is a grating spectrometer that has been measuring both solar and stellar fluxes in the 115-300 nm range since 2003. Preflight instrument calibration using the SURF III synchrotron source yields an uncertainty in the absolute stellar irradiances of just a few percent.The SOLSTICE program stars are early-type main sequence A and B stars that are frequently used as calibration sources for other missions. Our instrument was calibrated at a NIST facility, which is impractical for most astronomical missions. We will compare our irradiances to archival measurements, including IUE.
