Abstract
CETUS is a 1.5-m, wide-field UV observatory that will be a worthy successor to Hubble. Its distinguishing characteristics include multi-object slit spectroscopy, long-slit spectroscopy, spectroscopy in the Lyman-UV, prompt-response observations, and detection of low-surface brightness objects. These new capabilities ensure future discoveries.
