Abstract
The Hubble Deep Field-South (HDF-S) was chosen to have a QSO (RA 22:33:37.6 Dec -60:33:29 J2000 and B=17.5) in the field to allow for studies of absorption systems intersecting the sight line to the QSO. To assist in the planning of HDF-S observations we present here a ground-based spectrum of the QSO. We measure a redshift of z=2.24 for the QSO and find associated absorption in the spectrum at z=2.204 as well as additional absorption features.
