Scientific paper

This video explains the ASTRO 1 observatory and its ten day mission aboard SpaceLab on NASA's Space Shuttle, which Marshall Space Flight Center (MSFC) and Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC) astronomers will use to study distant stars, supernovae, and black holes. The observatory contains ultraviolet and x ray telescopes that will capture images earth-bound observatories can't, due to interference from the earth's atmosphere. The video contains footage of the instrument being loaded on the shuttle, animations of anticipated images to be captured, and scenes of the SpaceLab Control Center at MSFC.
