The massive star content of blue irregular galaxiesThree regions of recent star formation in blue irregular galaxies were observed with the IUE in the short wavelength, low dispersion mode. The spectra indicate that the massive star content is similar in 2 of the 3 regions and is best fit by a synthesized spectrum of a burst of massive stars 2.5 to 3.0 million yr old.
