The Hopkins Ultraviolet Telescope (HUT) was a shuttle-borne instrument used to obtain ultraviolet spectra in the far ultraviolet region of the spectrum. It was part of the ASTRO payload complement of three co-mounted instruments that flew in December 1990 and March 1995 as Space Shuttle missions. More than 650 spectra were obtained of 340 targets. In April, 2013, the HUT data was reprocessed to improve calibration, expand metadata, add new data products, and update file formats. The current cone service uses the metadata from these reprocessed files.
