The World Space Observatory UltraViolet (WSO-UV) project is a multipurposeinternational space observatory. The 170 cm aperture of the telescope, theefficiency of the instruments and the geosynchronous orbit makes of the WSO-UV aversatile instrument for UV astronomy in the post-Hubble Space Telescope era. WSO-UV will provide observations that are of exceptional importancefor the study of the intergalactic medium, star formation at all scales, thephysics of astronomical engines and the magnetospheres of extrasolargiant planets. WSO-UV is implemented in the framework of a collaboration between Russia(chair), Spain, Germany and Ukraine.This article is an updated accounting of the status of theproject and its implementation in Spain.
