EUVITA (Extreme UV Imaging Telescope Array) is a set of 8 extreme UV normal incidence imaging telescopes, each of them sensitive in a narrow band (lambda/delta lambda = 15 to 80), centered at wavelengths between 50 and 175 A. Each telescope has an effective area of a few sq cm, a field of view of 1.2 deg and a spatial resolution of 10 arcsec. EUVITA will be flown on the Russian mission SPECTRUM X-G. This satellite will be launched in a highly eccentric orbit with a period of 4 days, allowing long, uninterrupted observations (e.g. 105 seconds). EUVITA's narrow spectral bands allow the measurement of source parameters such as temperature or power law index as well as interstellar absorption, and will resolve groups of strong lines emitted by optically thin hot plasmas.
