Scientific paper

A star-stabilized Skylark rocket was launched in June 1973 to record ultraviolet spectra of the bright stars gamma-2 Velorum and zeta Puppis. The gamma-2 Vel spectral observations extend from 92 to 230 nm and the zeta Pup spectrum from 100 to 230 nm. Analysis of the spectra provides information about the composition and properties of the interstellar gas in the line of sight. The observations also provide useful data on the stellar atmospheres. P Cygni line profiles are observed in the spectra of both stars, indicating that high-velocity material is being ejected.
