NASA pronounced the mission of international ultraviolet explorer Iue successful: observatory performance had "substantially exceeded design and mission objectives." Gyros used on Iue would serve the Space Telescope (ST); the spectrograph and cameras would influence the design of those on the ST; and operational software and guest-observer operations would provide an experience base for the ST.
