The Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph (STIS) is a second generation instrument to be installed into the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) in-orbit 5–9 years after the first launch. Together with the infra-red instrument, it will provide a large increase in capability of the observatory, and be able to replace a first generation that had failed or degraded.
