Spektr-UV, also known as World Space Observatory-Ultraviolet (WSO-UV), is a proposed ultraviolet space telescope intended for work in the 115 nm to 315 nm wavelength range.[3][4] It is an international project led by Russia (Roscosmos), with participation from Spain and Japan. The launch had initially been planned for 2007, but has since been continually delayed;[5] as of December 2023[update], the launch is expected to take place no earlier than 2030[1] atop an Angara A5M rocket from Vostochny Cosmodrome.[2]
