Description:
FIRST (Faint Images of the Radio Sky at Twenty-cm) is a project designed to produce the radio equivalent of the Palomar Observatory Sky Survey over 10,000 square degrees of the North and South Galactic Caps. The catalogue covers a total of about 9033 square degrees of sky (8422 square degrees in the north Galactic cap and 611 square degrees in the south Galactic cap.)
Spectra from the Flash and Heros Echelle spectrographs developed at
Landessternwarte Heidelberg and mounted at La Silla and various other
observatories. The data mostly contains spectra of OB stars. Heros was
the name of the instrument after Flash got a second channel in 1995.

This service exposes about 0.5 million light curves of stars
classified as variable by the Gaia analysis system through the VO SSAP
protocol. The lightcurves are published per-band and are also
available through obscore.

Description:
The Galaxy Evolution Explorer (GALEX) satellite is a NASA mission led by the California Institute of Technology to investigate how star formation in galaxies evolved from the early Universe up to the present. GALEX uses microchannel plate detectors to obtain direct images in the near-UV (NUV) and far-UV (FUV) and a grism to disperse light for low resolution spectroscopy
