Scientific paper

A computer program which calculates a theoretical backbody curve for a star when given only the star's temperature and visual magnitude is presented. The program was written to produce approximate stellar spectra to be used in the design of the Space Telescope Fine Guidance System (FGS). In addition to the blackbody curve, the program calculates the number of photons tht would be received by the Space Telescope per 25 MSEC interval in wavelength increments of 0.2 microns. The equations used for the computations work best for stars that emit primarily in the range of near infrared to ultraviolet.
