MUSCLES (for Measurements of the Ultraviolet Spectral Characteristics of Low-mass Exoplanet host Stars) is a survey using HST, of ultraviolet spectra of some M dwarves that host extra-solar planets. The UV spectrum is of interest in studying the atmosphere of Jovian exoplanets, thus accurate records of the stellar UV spectra are helpful.
