We have designed the laboratory model of static Fourier spectrometer for onboard usage for spectral study of atmosphere and ionosphere. The gain of model is to simulate onboard FS which will not have any moving elements (all its optical elements will be mounted at fused quartz monolithic construction), to compare experimental results with theoretical estimations and to measure MTF of CCD array. ... This fact connected with low frequency response of CCD array due to small format of it. ...

... These partially reduced images of the Pleiades were taken by WISP using its longer-wavelength (2180 ) UV filter. Point-spread functions (PSFs) of the brightest stars have been removed to reveal much of the inner reflection nebula, both in a centralized diffuse glow and in the nebulosity south of Merope, the bottom star in the Pleiades ``bowl''. The PSF removal process was improved since these images were produced. Better ultraviolet images can be found here . ...
