What Does EUVE Stand For?
EUVE stands for Extreme Ultraviolet Explorer NASA Satellite
The Extreme Ultraviolet Explorer (EUVE) is a NASA satellite designed to study the extreme ultraviolet (EUV) radiation emitted by celestial objects. Launched in 1992, EUVE's primary mission was to map the distribution of EUV sources in the universe, including stars, galaxies, and interstellar medium. By capturing high-resolution observations in the EUV spectrum, the satellite contributed significantly to our understanding of cosmic phenomena and the physical processes occurring in hot, ionized gas. EUVE operated until 2001, providing valuable data that advanced astrophysical research and enhanced our knowledge of the universe's structure and evolution.
