Abstract

We present a photometric catalog of 2244 objects detected by the Ultraviolet Imaging Telescope in the near-ultraviolet (NUV; 1650A<lambda<2900A) during the Astro-1 Space Shuttle mission. Sources in the catalog are as faint as m_nuv~18.8, or f_nuv~1.1x10^-16ergs/s/cm^2/A, but the survey is not complete to this level. Optical catalogs were used to cross identify sources and derive NUV-V colors. A majority of the objects (88%) do indeed have proposed optical identifications from catalogs, and most are stars. Our purpose in creating the catalog is to form a database useful for identifying very blue objects and performing Galactic UV stellar population studies.
