The document introduces the SAO/NASA Astrophysics Data System Abstract Service, which provides a searchable database of astronomy and astrophysics literature dating back to 1975. It allows users to search over weekly updated abstracts and determine full-text article availability to support students and professionals. The system employs Boolean search operators to precisely locate relevant articles while excluding unwanted results.
