Very high angular resolution ultraviolet telescope (VAULT2.0) is a Lyman-alpha (Ly[Formula: see text]; 1216[Formula: see text]Å) spectroheliograph designed to observe the upper chromospheric region of the solar atmosphere with high spatial ([Formula: see text]) and temporal (8[Formula: see text]s) resolution. Besides being the brightest line in the solar spectrum, Ly[Formula: see text] emission arises at the temperature interface between coronal and chromospheric plasmas and may, hence, hold important clues about the transfer of mass and energy to the solar corona. VAULT2.0 is an upgrade of the previously flown VAULT rocket and was launched successfully on September 30, 2014 from White Sands Missile Range (WSMR). The target was AR12172 midway toward the southwestern limb. We obtained 33 images at 8[Formula: see text]s cadence at arc second resolution due to hardware problems. The science campaign was a resounding success, with all space and ground-based instruments obtaining high-resolution data at the same location within the AR. We discuss the science rationale, instrument upgrades, and performance during the first flight and present some preliminary science results.
