Medium Deep Survey
(MDS, HST MDS)
(survey to find galaxies in HST WFPC2 images)
The Medium Deep Survey (MDS) was a 1990s
survey to locate distant galaxies within
Hubble Space Telescope (HST) WFPC2 (successor to WF/PC) images taken
for other purposes.
The same name and abbreviation (Medium Deep Survey, MDS)
has been used for a Pan-STARRS survey aiming to find
transients such as supernovae. The phrases
Pan-STARRS MDS and HST MDS are used to distinguish the two.
