The Extreme Ultraviolet Explorer (EUVE) was a space telescope for ultraviolet (UV) astronomy launched on June 7 1992. With instruments for UV radiation between wavelengths of 7 and 76 nm the EUVE was the first satellite mission especially for the short-wave ultraviolet range. The satellite compiled an all-sky survey of 801 astronomical targets before being decommissioned on January 31 2001. It re-entered the atmosphere on January 30 2002.
