The study objectives, mission analysis, EXUV system and subsystem guidelines, and development program are summarized. The mission requires an extreme UV telescope whose nominal waveband is from 100 to 912 A, and a soft X-ray telescope in the 5 to 250 A waveband. The EXUV source examination needs spatial resolution and source position accuracy of arcmin order. The observation program is divided into a 6 month slow scan survey of the entire celestial sphere, 6 months complementary survey work, and a 12 month study of specific EXUV sources. A longitudinal satellite configuration with three axis stabilized attitude control is adopted. Thermal control, electrical power subsystems, data handling, and communications subsystems are described.
