We report the detection of Cd I (Z = 48), Lu II (Z = 71), and Os II (Z = 76)in the metal-poor star BD+173248. These abundances are derived from anultraviolet spectrum obtained with the Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph onthe Hubble Space Telescope. This is the first detection of theseneutron-capture species in a metal-poor star enriched by the r-process. Wesupplement these measurements with new abundances of Mo I, Ru I, and Rh Iderived from an optical spectrum obtained with the High Resolution EchelleSpectrograph on Keck. Combined with previous abundance derivations, 32neutron-capture elements have been detected in BD+173248, the most completeneutron-capture abundance pattern in any metal-poor star to date. The lightneutron-capture elements (38 <= Z <= 48) show a more pronounced even-odd effectthan expected from current Solar system r-process abundance predictions. Theage for BD+173248 derived from the Th II/Os II chronometer is in betteragreement with the age derived from other chronometers than the age derivedfrom Th II/Os I. New Hf II abundance derivations from transitions in theultraviolet are lower than those derived from transitions in the optical, andthe lower Hf abundance is in better agreement with the scaled Solar systemr-process distribution.
