The Hubble Space Telescope Users Committee (STUC) represents the views and interests of the Hubble Users community. The committee recently met with members of the Hubble Team from STScI and NASA. This article highlights the meeting’s presentations to the STUC.
Members of STScI will participate in the 242st Meeting of the American Astronomical Society (AAS) in Albuquerque, New Mexico, at the Albuquerque Convention Center June 4 – 8.
STScI will participate in the 241st Meeting of the American Astronomical Society (AAS) at the Seattle Convention Center in Seattle, Washington, January 8 – 12. There will be technical presentations in instrument sessions, a wide variety of science presentations, workshops, splinter sessions, town halls, press releases, press conferences, NASA Hyperwall talks, and an exhibit booth.
The Hubble Space Telescope Users Committee is a group of 12 scientists who represent the interests of Hubble users community. The STUC meets twice a year, most recently in October 2022.

The Space Telescope Science Institute has released “stenv” to supersede Astroconda for its software distribution. Support for Astroconda will end on February 1, 2023.
STScI recently completed the proposal review and time allocation process for Hubble Cycle 30. Once again, this was a fully virtual review.
The Space Telescope Science Institute will have staff members participating in the 240th Meeting of the American Astronomical Society at the Pasadena Convention Center in Pasadena, CA, June 12–16, 2022.
The Hubble Space Telescope continues to perform its science program despite a few glitches over the past months. April 24 was Hubble's 32nd birthday! Testimony is seen in the beautiful anniversary image.
The success of these future endeavors hinges on a comprehensive understanding of the massive star populations and ISM gas conditions that power the observed FUV spectral features. The Cosmic Origins Spectrograph COS Legacy Archive Spectroscopic SurveY (CLASSY) Treasury is a powerful new solution.
The Short-Term Scheduling Branch of the Science Operations & Engineering division at STScI develops and maintains science observation scheduling systems for Hubble, Webb, and Roman using modern software engineering practices.
A new cross-mission flux calibration working group was established at the Space Telescope Science Institute in November 2021.
Supporting science through quality engineering practices has always been a standing achievement at STScI. This is evident through years of successful science, development, and support of Hubble, Webb, Roman, MAST, and other missions.
Part of this article is an abridged, updated version of a paper originally published in a Conference Proceedings, "From Giotto to Rosetta: 30 Years of Cometary Science from Space and Ground," eds. C. Barbieri and C. G. Someda.
For more than three decades, Hubble has yielded unique discoveries, contributed to multi-wavelength investigations, and campaigned to study time-variable phenomena. A few results captured in nearly 1000 refereed papers this year are mentioned here.
