Wide field direct CCD images in UBVR, H-alpha, and in selected cases H-beta, [OIII], and/or Stromgren u, were obtained at Kitt Peak, Cerro Tololo and Mount Laguna Observatories to support and to complement the Astro-1 ultraviolet imaging data. All Astro-1/UIT support observations obtained at KPNO were made with the 0.9m telescopes. The first data set (1990) was obtained with the former #1 0.9m telescope. This telescope was subsequently combined with parts of the #2 0.9m telescope to produce the current KPNO 0.9m telescope. The KPNO 0.9m (36 inch) telescope consists of a f/3.3 primary with a flip secondary. All UIT support observations used the f/7.5 Ritchey-Chretien focus secondary with a focal plane scale of 28.33 arcseconds/mm.
