The International Ultraviolet Explorer (IUE) is an 18 inch (45 cm) space telescope for ultraviolet spectrophotometry in geosynchronous orbit and is a joint project of the European Space Agency, the American National Aeronautics and Space Administration and the British Science Research Council. (Boggess et al. 1978 ab). It is a small instrument to use for objects of truly high redshift and therefore IUE observations relevant to extragalactic astronomy in general will be covered here.
