Scientific paper

The Sloan Digital Sky Survey will produce a detailed digital photometric map of half the northern sky to about 23 magnitude using a special purpose wide field 2.5 meter telescope. From this map we will select approximately 106 galaxies and 105 quasars, and obtain high resolution spectra using the same telescope. The imaging catalog will contain 108 galaxies, a similar number of stars, and 106 quasar candidates.
