摘要
The FAUST telescope is an ultraviolet survey instrument that features a wide 8-degrees field of view, approximately 1' angular resolution, and a photon counting detector. Operating in the 1400-1800 angstrom band, it will be sufficiently sensitive to detect blue m(v) = 17 objects in a single 20 minute night. The instrument is part of the ATLAS-1 shuttle mission, presently scheduled for flight in May 1991. A substantial number of high galactic latitude fields will be investigated, with particular emphasis on studies of the origin of the diffuse far UV background.
